  • Beast x repair ????

    I got a second hand unit for a mate and its never been right. After umpteen setups and tweaks I finally decided to fit one of my vbars to his 450 to see if it was his Heli or the beast and it flew perfectly.
    I then decided to fit his beast to my 450 as I know it's vibe free and that was a huge mistake !! I spooled up and popped it up in the air about 18 inches at which point it spazzed out big style and had a fit taking out blades and servos etc. I'm guessing a sensor is screwed
    Has anyone on here sent a beast back for repair or is that £90 down the crapper ???

    We have sent one back with similar symptoms as yours But in fairness it happened after a very heavy crash were waiting for it to come back but I dougt it's a repair as such more of just replace.

      The trouble is the unit was pre owned so I don't know it's history :-( I only noticed this eve that the holographic sticker has been tampered with so I'm guessing the seller was aware but not much I can do now.

      Bish I'm guessing yours is a warranty replacement ?

        I have just packed one up ready to be sent back tomorrow. My 700 pitched nose down then flipped backwards totally out of control! Hope Fast Lad replace it ASAP as I need to get it back in the air before I loose my nerve!

          The crash wasn't caused by the beast ,the problem is no stock for replacement :-( warranty or not !

            It is possible to find faults by inspection but that tends to be after something has been made. You might find a wire that is only just making contact. Did the unit work ok when you moved it about to check the swash levelling? It may be worth finding out how to fix these. What does the log say?

                There are no logs with beast x and no wires either lol had a quick look seeing as the tamper sticker was voided anyway and it's all pcb. ;-)

                Steve you have pm .... Many thanks ;-)
