RE: Logo10 recommended motors

That motor with a 18T pinion will give you about 1750 rpm of headspeed which is fine for 3d but I have no idea what kind of flight time you will get. Probably no more than 5 minutes if that.

RE: Logo10 recommended motors

This depends on what you want it to do. Are you new to helis? If not than you may want to reconsider your battery choice. 12 - 13 cells are better for the Logo 10.

If you are dead set on 10...

to buy or not to buy ?

Go to ebay and do a search for gy401 and you"ll find them with the servo new for $168 which is a great price.

The 401 and the S9253 are made to work best with each other. Change either and you will lose a little. Any servo will work it just depends on how well you want it to hold.

After spraying with the Bulldog and paint does the fuel hurt the paint. I'd hate to go to all that trouble to see the excess fuel mess it up.

Corona flight time

I get three 10 minute flights from a TP 2s4p 7800 pack, then I usually recharge it to be safe and not ruin it.

No noticable power difference in the flights just some cooling time between them.

I have had this exact same problem. And it is not the training gear. My Corona has never had training gear on it.

It appears to be due to the loose fit of the swash plate.

Logo10 Pinion coming loose

Gary,

The grub screw that comes with the pinion is made to bite into the shaft and a flat is not required.

Co-Pilot. EVERYTHING you need to know.

Warlock,

During field calibration, should the heli be level or the CP?

I have it on my corona and with the voyagerE gear the heli does not sit exactly level on the ground.
