  • A short but great day

    Well, finally maidened my 700e but only got one flight due to the rain but absolutely amazing sounding machine. Gave it a quick blast of full throttle, its not lacking grunt Everything came down nice and cool after 5 minutes

    Also flew my Vision Comp flybarless fitted with the Beast X. Not had a lot of luck with flybarless so far, and this was my last attempt. Didn't know what to expect as we have had a couple of Beast X's down the field which have had some set up problems (plus my own issues with previous 3g units). However, it just took off into a perfect hover, no twitching, dancing on the floor. Only thing I need to look at is the sensitivity settings as the cyclic controls felt very lazy and soft (everything is currently on default....will have to read the menu again). Definitely tracked better than with the flybar, also seems to have got rid of the interaction problems I was having doing rolls i.e. the model always dropped its tail during the inverted part.

    Will post some pic's later (nothing special). A great day spoilt by crap weather.
    Cheers,
    Simon

    Good to hear. Making mine FBL soon. Is you CG right? Mine is noticeably tail heavy which is what causes the tail to drop. need to buy a 5000mAh pack

        The vision just after her maiden with the Beast X (no flying shots as it started to rain)



        The 700e, again nothing special but this seems to have taken ages to get in the air.





        Again, rain stopped play before I could get a shot with the canopy on.
