Theres one!!!

[Nick B]

LOL...its on one of my logo's,just need to do the head set up now after scratching around getting stuff moving right.


Now this Datapod.....























It's fricken awesome

[heathy]

Theres one!!!

Nice one Nick. Interested in your findings compared to the v bar.

[milly0812]

Theres one!!!

I'm interested as to why your trying it nick? Just curiosity or did you find the vbar lacking in some way ??

[waveydavey]

The datapod is the nuts, you think it's gonna be difficult to use and it so isn't (I sound like a teenage girl talking about her first crush)

If you've got the itch Don why not. Nick will find it different to the V Bar though

No mate I haven't got any itches lol, I switched from the beast x to the vbar because I could never sort the tail on the beast x out properly it was hit and miss on different models whereas I've found the vbar tail absolutely brilliant. And ATM I'm a happy vbar fanboy.
I'm just curious as what people are looking for, or why they are switching

No real reason,Don.I have only flown vbar before so i just wanted to have ago with something different.


I love the vbar so if this vortex is much much better it could be expensive.


Being able to tweak it at the field is just a bonus!

Well you already know the tail will be good nick ;-) its not like a 3G with a gp780 strapped on lol . I think if I was earning like I used to I would prolly ' try one ' too but ATM I don't see the point as I have not been able to shake the tail with the vbar yet even with an input error. I would like to see snappier cyclics but that's prolly me not tweaking. I did like the cyclic on the beastx as I could just up the rates to speed it up whereas the agility on vstabi doesn't seem quite as responsive ( again that could be setup related)

[Nick B]

If you want faster cyclic try 110 on the agility,i did last week,scary!...back to 100.



Right,Q for Angelos...logo tail,do i leave my 2-3 degrees against the torque?...my guess is yes?...it gave me equal travel of 112 both ways.



My Vortex is mechanically set up now....loving the little magic box.

Got to agree, the datapod is so straight forward & simple to use, also so intuitive, compared to the sk-lcd it's a breeze

If the maiden goes well then I think I may have to put them on my other heli's

i personally put the slider in the middle and try to get as close to 100 each way as possible. Your 112 should be fine but if you find gain is high you can always go out a hole on the servo horn, no biggy.

For reference my ail debounce is 15 and elev 170 on my 700e I got from you.

Cheers

[Nick B]

Cheers Paul,not got as far as fine tweaking

Will try a centered slider tomorrow

[waveydavey]

Haven't had much time to fly nor adjust but it felt lazy to start with so had to remove expo completely whereas I needed expo on the v bar.

[Nick B]

Centered my pitch slider and get 94 -134??

How should i wire in my jive 80 power feeds,master in rx and slave in sv5??.Leaving the datapod in DPOD.

[raptorheli2]

when i say centre i don't mean blades at 0 pitch, i mean in the centre of your slider so you get equal travel both sides.

ideally you want your end points 100-100 ish.

what you had before was perfectly acceptable but with maybe a hint of not enough mechanical gain. i.e maybe could go out a hole on servo if you have issues.

cheers

[Nick B]

Ok,when i got 112 last night it was one push of the button from binding so it would probably be about 104-106 1mm from bind point.

What about my power feeds....i am having to use the destructions from spartan site due to leaving the ones from the box in the shop d'oh.
