Warning.....I was stupid!

[Lynx.1677]

Following on from this thread I have realised my mistake:

http://www.rcheliaddict.co.uk/beastx...her-crash.html

Yup, the whole time I had the issues with the beastX my main blade grips were flipped. FBL doesn't like trailing edge control, has to be leading edge. Tell you what though, I learnt a fair bit about delta and phasing!

So BeastX is very good.

well done you found it and we like people that put your hands up and say it as it is

I hate fliers that Blame all sorts then them self.

top man.

[Tom Burgess]

Yep well done

Glad you got it sorted

[Sieze2]

That's one thing I haven't done yet. Made most other mistakes, including putting the blades on the wrong way round....(and yes it will still fly !)

[Jamin_00]

Just glad you got it sorted mate

My 450es v2 i once had flew amazingly well with tail blades on back to front

And my 450 pro worked fine with one paddle back to front too

Nice one Dan,be good to hear how it flys now dude

Suggest if you could link this thread to your previous thread (both on first and last pages) and close the previous thread. .... otherwise someone reading the previous thread in the future may be going on a wild goose chase......lol

What are you like?

[Lynx.1677]

How the hell I missed it though is beyond me. I was so focused on it being something else that I totally overlooked it.

Still, it flies bloody great now so alls well that ends well. Just got 3 batteries in before the heavens opened.

I know.............felt rather silly.

Still.....it would be boring here without me right.

RIGHT?

Hehe.

Darn you were dangerous enough without getting that thing moving even faster

[Vanquish]

I've been flying the 500 like this for a while now with the mikado fbl head, could this be the reason for the cyclic wobble i've spent £200 on new servo's/blades trying to get rid of??

Didnt relise it made any difference whether it was leading or trailing edge. I might cry.

Right..........how do I remove an EGS nomination!

Vanquish, flip the grips and try it, I am 99.9% sure it will solve your cyclic wobble as that is exactly what I have been having.

Sort of glad I was so daft now as I am not alone!

I spent about the same mate trying different servo's and buying a Castle Ice50.

What made you notice the grips were wrong way round? I probably never would have noticed ive just been looking at some fbl setup's and their all leading edge. The annoying thing is i thought id got rid of the wobble as it flew pretty well yesterday, but not perfect. will flip grips and try and get a flight in this afternoon.

When you flip the grips dont the control directions change so you have to setup the beastx again?

Hey Sam, as I was changing the lenght of my links to the blade grips I noticed how I was turning it the opposite way than I remember. I also found it odd that I had to reverse the pith channel in the tx.

Yes, once you flip back over you will need to reset points H, J, K, L and M.

May as well just check the rest just to be sure.
