Flybarless - Your Annoyences

[callum]

So, I've been flying flybarless for a few months now...

To tell the truth, I really like it!

But since it flies so well I keep forgetting it does'nt have the phase issue, So here's me automatically trying to fly the phasing problem out - When there is non!

What are your annoyences? or Habits that you are having to break by going Flybarless?

I'm also flybarless for about 20 flights now.
I have to say, I like it very much.
But this can also depend on the size of my 600, it is very stable.
The size 90 is also very stable (with flybar) and I use also my SE.

All in all a very good year so to say, with only (I guess) on crash.

And I found you guys in this forum, which is eventually a great pleasure for me.

Converted five of my heli's that's how committed I'm am so no annoyences for me.

The thing I like about it is I can set them up easier than I can a FB heli.

Prob me being lazy but a perfectly set up FB heli is something that take skill, experience and a good knowledge of the workings. Something I can never get quite spot on but with the FBL its taken that away for me.

So now I have prob as near to perfect head set up as I can get because most of it is done for me.


Because of that all my helis fly incredibly accurate and it makes them feel more alike now using the Vbar that they would if they were FB.

Plus they look good without the FB.

Thats my thoughts anyway.

Going into my 2nd year flying model helis, just put a beastx on my 600, it flys very well nice stall turns and loops and very good in fast forward flight, and does not need constant balancing on the sticks, which I found felt strange, if I were to be honest I do prefer the feel of a flybar though, will not be going fbl on the raptor 90 as was planned I like it as it is...

I love FBL as it tidys my flying up and more importantly gives me confidence to try new stuff.. however Its a little annoying getting the settings right for your style off flying.. did I mention I love it.. No sticky out bits looks great and I want to try V-bar next time as thats still meant to be the Daddy of FBL!

No looking back

Love the look and love how they fly.

It took a bit of getting used to just taking off with the purely the collective, but it is easy to learn as long as you are very deliberate about the first few flights.

I could do all the same stuff on flybarred helis, but FBL just seems to inspire confidence and make my flying more enjoyable.

And besides, I like shiny things

note to self- need some new pics for the avatar- I can see sticky out bits

I don't think there are any annoying things about flybarless I can think of perhaps a waggy tail if your using the 3G system but thats all , I like an uncluttered head it looks more realistic too and now I have v-bar and beastx machines its fantastic rock solid tails and stable in flight ;0)

It doesn't tidy your flying up Eddie, it tidies the model up. The 600 is a pitchy wayward soggy mess of a heli that the Beast straightens up.

Dave, You know what I meant.. same thing-ish

Actually, no! You are constantly putting corrections in to tidy the pitching up tendency. This makes it look even more untidy. Because the Beast takes away this you are not correcting/over correcting for inputs that you aren't putting in, so Eddie your flying is better than the 600 makes it look.
