  • I Fear for My:

    Jesus Bolt's

    Okay, today i completed the install of my Torque Tube after driving (thanks mum) to midlands heli's and getting some bits (Thanks Midlands!) Oh.. I have decent tools now

    Anyways.. In the mids of Installing the torque tube, i re-configured my head and moved the ball links on the outer section of the mixer arms closer to the head (Faster) i then moved the ball links on my Cyclic Servos out on the arms from 19.5mm to in the 20's.

    Then i setup the head and got 14 Degrees Collective and 12 Degrees Cyclic.

    After completing the install of the torque tube i richened the engine by half a turn and took it for a half tank test hover in normal mode.

    Took off into a nice hover.. Hovers hands off! GREAT!!

    Did a bit of a pitch pump and.. FOOOOK ME HOW FAST DO YOU WANT!! Pretty Much instant! Very insane! I love it!! xD

    The tail was talking to me saying the Engine was too rich.. But i wanted a rich run anyway..

    Now.. bare in mind this is quite rich (Backplate was nice and cooool) and in normal mode... I cannot wait to see what its like when the engine tuning has been dialed in and Idle Up mode!...

    Wanted to do some flying but the rain started

    Should be good tomorrow!

    Regards
    Callum

    "Anger and Frustration bring the best out of my flying ability.. because generally I don't give a shit either if the machine hit's the deck or stay's in the air - both will accomplish satisfaction, but most of all it exerts the feeling of flying conservatively. - Callum"
