do i need a governer?

[Mr.Brown]

hi guys how yall doing?been flying in the sunny wether. i hope so.


anyways


I have a 700n and i dont have a governer installed simply coz i have dx6i .And i wanted to know if its worth getting a governer.I currently enjoy my flights but when i do fast rolls i notice that the blades bog a little. let me know if you have noticed any difference between flying with ot without a gov..thanks

Mix the throttle to aileron as well as to the elevator.

Think there is a Finless Vid on Helifreak too.

Watch the finless bob videos as Paul said it will show you what to do :0)

My flying involves loops/flips/rolls etc. rather than proper 3D (also with a 700N) and I did notice that when I started using a governor, the head speed was a bit more consistent so I'd say yes, there is some benefit. However, if you can't use a governor then as stated above, using throttle mixes will probably help.

I personally prefer a limiter to a governor - seem to get a more consistant hs with my throttle jockey.

However I have seen some pretty serious 3d done with just mixes, so interested to hear about this. If anyone could give an idea of settings that would be great?

I use multigov pro's on my 600 and 700 i think thay
work realy well you can add remove throttle responce
in a mix to cyclic but i feel that unless you real know how
to set this up i would stick with a gov to keep motor speed
constant

Unless you are loading the head up with heavy collective there is no need for a gov until that time.

If memory serves me correct Ade Law never used a gov for a long time flying 3D and he did quite well without one.

I'm pretty sure Stephan Simmons and Squeaky Pete have also done 3D comps without governors.

[Mr.Brown]

Thanks to all I'm going to go without a gov for now and setting up the mixs so my rolls will be abit better any advice on setting it up on a dx6 will be helpful. I tried doing it earlier but couldn't get reponse from the throttle servo while aileron servo moved,but il try again after work

Do you need a governor? No.

Do you want a governor? Well that's up to you my friend.

I 'want' governors or limiters on all my helis.

I also have cyclic to throttle mixing and rudder to throttle mixing on my helis as well.

[callum]

Tweak the curves a bit

No need for a gov, I don't run one either

Well, That's a lie.. I'm using the Vbar one at the moment. (BETA)

Yes that is definitely true. You don't NEED one but I did definitely notice a difference in the heli's ability to maintain headspeed even in just 'sport' flight so it made a positive difference for me.

[Mr.Brown]

Thanks again guys.again my heli is not that bad without a governer although I assume helps.so once I upgrade my tx then il have to try a gov. And take it from there
