  • FBL Project.. What should I Dooooo ???????

    Hiya, I have a Trex 600 Pro, Os 55 and trex 450pro both with spartans... Fly bar versions that I'm currently flying.

    I have a second Trex 600 LE with a OS55,GP55 exhaust Align 610 cyclic Ds 650 Tail and a spare 620 lying around.(This will be the project)

    It is just hanging on my wall and want to do a project and really want to try FBL. I have only been flying about a year and currently at the point of circuits, loops, rolls and v very scretchy tic wobble tocs, and a little bit of invert hovering at height.

    So Heres the Ideas I've Got....???????

    Ive got a DX8 which has been back to HH 3 times (in a year)and now out of warranty (thats why want to change the TX),

    Thinking of a change to a Futaba 8FG and CGY750 R6203SB.
    http://www.align-trex.co.uk/-p-r6203-p-2275.html (CGY750 and rs203sb) £270
    Futaba 8FG 2.4GHz Transmitter Only P-T8FG2-4G - Electronics Transmitters - ALIGN-TREX.co.uk (8fg) £269

    And a DFC head as looks cool as F$£K and read good thing about it.

    Is this a good idea or am I... well lets say PIE IN THE SKY ideas.

    Cheers

    I did the same with my spare 600 put a fbl unit and head on it to give it a go, since then I have expanded my FBL helis, but if you fancy it and you have the funds go for it.

    As for changing from the DX8 to futaba, again a decision you need to make, ive stuck with jr, I had a dx8 which I sold and am now using a DSX11 which I love, great radio. remember if you change tx then your going to have to swap out all your rx's
    All the best

      I think TX change is a def. Dont get me wrong I like my DX8, it really has been the only TX ive really known, but it a trust issue now.

      There is so many FBL units availible and so many differing opions and would like to know if a good system to try if never done FBL before, ie setup how it flys.

      The Cost issue.... The council tax is paying for it, I had my house re-evaluated, they have been over charging me for 6years and got a cheque for over grand back of them, and what better way to spend it.
