Align 3G Sensor Enhancements

[serpent887]

There is an interesting thread developing over on HF relating to some successful user modifications for 3G sensors.

Modifying 3G for better performance - HeliFreak

I am very happy with my two 3G systems but following these very positive reports am interested try it myself.

I hope this is helpful input

Very interesting thread for sure..

Will look into this

[acwman]

All Done.. Now just waiting for it to dry now

..Hopefully get it tested on the 450 sport in the next day, and fingers crossed for some good results.

Great thread and good reading.

[Paulo uk]

Oh Well.... First test flight did not go quite to plan

Upped the gain from 70 t0 80 on the cyclics for first test. Stability and piro was very good.. and did seem to be a definite improvement, BUT... forgot I swapped out the tail servo for another one, and it needed to be set up at the field...

Well, tail kicked out when I started to throw it around abit, and was too close to the ground to do anything.

Needs new spindle, main shaft, boom, and added another scar to the canopy..

Will get it flying again for tomorrow, and will hopefully have some better reports. Initial findings though, is that it does seem to hold better in the hover and seems to be alot more locked in. Will know more tomorrow hopefully

Very interesting
great find might have a go
cheaper then a beast X

Or just buy something that actually works like a VBar to start with

[sacko]

Agreed!

You cant beat it imo.

[Smoothound]

Far too much faffing trying to make something of dubious quality work IMHO, just get a VBar Or even a BeastX if you are a bit financially challenged

[Gaza07]

Bit like faffing about whith central heating controls rather than paying for the job to be done properly, Although I suppose if you are a bit financially challenged

Now sorted

Central Heating is a bit of a suck it and see/grey area.

FBL is more buy once and forget or **** around with a half arsed product for ages then buy the best tool for the job

...This thread also gives some hope for the 780 gyro I've had sitting on my bench that just wagged whatever i did..

If I have trouble with this 3G, I'll get a plumber to have a look then

[Malc1]

Got a couple of V Bars and they are great.

My 3G needs to be better so I may just give this mod a go.

Just waiting a bit longer for feedback.
