The Flkybar on my V-3 comes off in hard landings, so what I did was remove the flybar linkage from my (wrecked - my fault) V-4 and put it on the other (vacant) side of my V-3. So now it has two. The flybar now stays with my V-3 when I land hard but... and this is odd... she seems to be a lot more stable in hovering. Is this because there's some, 'slop,' with just one linkage? But it DID make a difference.
I have 4 batteries and have left them in my (came with the V-3 and 4) charger overnight. I've since read that this is a no-no. But each time I have unplugged it, it's cool and the flying times are excellent, from about 10 to 15 minutes or more. I'd like to hear more on this.
OK, I'm a pretty small fish on this forum, most of you have 60 or 70
helicopters, but my next one's coming! Any suggestions on my next step up? The V-3 is easy to fly, what's an easy-to-learn-fly conventional (electric) helicopter?
Do they make a twin rotor (as in Chinook) helicopter? I think that would be interesting.
