Just a heads up, always intended to tell it how it is, and on starting the build have found the tail slider binding (will replace with Align, as i doubt there will be any after sales from China) and 1x henge cyclic servo MD933 is faulty , and not centering correctly.

This is the thing with clones. I found dodgy tails on all of mine and have replaced with an Align tail unit, so factor in this cost of about £40 for a new tail tail box plus tail grips and rotor shaft).

True, I guess you live and learn...

tails seem to be a problem with the clones ive got a few clones (copterx and hk450 ) and its always the bloody tails i seem to have problems with but out of them 2 i prefer the copterx but same as everything you get what you payfor and always check everything this is a second hobby for me so i dont want to spank a lot of money ( but its slowly takeing over ) ive got the copterx flybarless unit but due to a servo going bang on me im useing it as a tail gyro at the moment till i repace the links in the fbl head but im using the hacked software to program it on pc but they have released the pc software now so i think ill have to get the links and give it another try but as a tail gyro its not bad lol

Is that the plastic arm ? Tarot also do a metal arm that is very nice

I take it your meaning on the tail slider Mike? if so, yes. But i think it may be the actual shaft thats causing the issue. Decided to change the tail for Align, and i am going to swap out the remaining Henge servo's as i dont have any confidence in them now, So i think i'll go for HS65mg's on the cyclic, and Ds520 on the tail, unless anyone can give other reliable servo's that would be suitable.

I have built both the sport and the pro tarots and both kits had sticky tail sliders. I rolled some wet and dry into a cone and reamed both ends of the slider bushing as it was poorly machined. Tail was nice and free once done. ;-)

Im looking to try this unit on my beam in the not too distant future, got to be worth a punt considering the price

Well what's it like any good.

[muscleflex]

any more people with the ZYX? i'm just about to rip mine open (the box) and have a fiddle with it.
any good links to a set up?
do i need to rip all my present servos to test with this thing?

[Planehazza]

Like any FBL, just make sure the servo settings (frequency etc) are all set right before connecting the servos.

thanks - i'm just familiarizing myself with the software.
I brought the gyro with me and the USB to play at work but guess what - the gyro needs a power supply to power up (I thought the USB alone would power it - oh well)
