Tarot ZYX, My Thought's

[Nick1975]

All i can say is extremely impressed

Fitted one on my 450Pro after the rebuild and after robbing the AR7200BX to go on my Protos.
Wanted a cheap option to get the 450 back in the air, And i have to say i cant belive how well a cheapo system like this worked, the heli was totally locked in straight away even on basic settings, Fliped really nicely, Tail totally locked, super smooth FFF and all in 12-14mph winds

I have to say im highly impressed with it especially as mine is a second hand unit i got for 30 quid

Would be interested to see how it handles 3d moves?

[Nick1975]

I cant vouch for hard 3d, but tonight it handled everything i could throw at it (not much i know, Flips, rolls, stall turns, tic toc's, invert, loops) and i couldn't unsettle it at all, totally locked the whole time.

Yep, seems there's a few of us using this now, and generally seems that people are pleased with it.

Tjata cool! I just ordered one!

[Sekra]

Are there any other reviews like this on the forum?

Just finishing off the cables on mine tonight and then hopefully give it another go.

^^ on a 700?

[choppertastic]

ermm... no.. on my little 450.

[robski]

They seem to work well on 700's also.

[scuba steve]

have you guys got the standard version or the 's' version ?

i've read that the 's' version has problems binding with just sats fitted ?

I have them on both my 450PRO and 600 nitro.

They are really good IMO but you can't just fit and fly. There's quite a bit of tweaking necessary particularly with a nitro - BUT they can and do work.

Set them up using a laptop. The programming box isn't really up to much for fine tuning and setting them up with just the transmitter is really hard (I gave up). The PC software is really good and easy to use. The difficult bit that I - and everyone I know found was understanding what all the individual settings do on the advanced screen and how they interact with each other. A BeastX is a doddle by comparison but then it's 4 times as much.

Had a bit of a weird one last night with mine. Went through the normal power up procedure and let the zyx initialise then went to fly. Well when it got light on the skids is pirouetted like it was on drugs. Managed to get it back on the deck with no damage. I power cycled the model and tentatively tried again and this time is was fine.

Has anyone else seen this behaviour. I am also running the latest firmware.

Cheers
