  • 3G cyclic fault

    My 3G has developed a fault at point of lift & in hover I have an almost an uncontrolled cyclic behaviour, I've been told there unrepairable however I have read bits in the past about moding the gyro but not sure if that's the same symptoms so anyone know on this one
    Today's outlook is fine for flying.

    I've replaced it with 3GX but still wondering on the answer.

      Not sure that I really understood the original question...
      Modding the sensor involved putting silicone between all the sensors to help in the improving the characteristics of the unit, and was not a symptom or a fix for anything.

        Hows the 3GX fairing up? How much better is it? Is it as good as a BeastX?

          Silicon doesn't sound like a fix to my problem, just seems a shame to have to bin it.

            Do you know if it is a sensor, or could it be the control unit fault? Whichever it maybe, it maybe worth something to someone who may have a damaged sensor/control box?

                Look forward to hearing what you think Jim... was thinking of trying one but something keeps telling me to purchase a BeastX instead. Saying that i still havent flown my newly flashed V3 Beast X in the velo 50 so suppose ill have to wait a bit

                  I not sure which part is faulty Im guessing because of the symptoms it could be sensor, suppose I could try & out it might help someone out as spares

                    The thing that puts me of with beastx is the setup is all done in the unit itself whereas the 3G & 3GX needs the conventional TX setup, The 3G on my 6 & 700 I never need to play with settings, the beastx on my smaller heli's Im often having to play with the pods & parameters they never seem to fly the same twice or that's how it feels.
