Spektrum DS821 upgrade

[challis349]

Hi chaps and chapette's

bought the trex 600 earlier, which has ds821 servo's on cyclic and throttle, what would be a reasonably priced upgrade to these, I dont know exactly how much.

Have read these ain't to good, and they dont really feel that smooth

cheers

they'll possibly be ok for basic circuit stuff but if you have an arrival they'll most likely strip but should be fine on throttle, Align 610's are your best best or futaba BLS451's

Kev... This 600 is ready to fly. Do not fiddle with it ffs. Just enjoy it. Change the clunk line sure... But fly it.

As far as i know lee bates set this bird up n will tell u the same...

wasnt asking for straight away anyway tom, they will get changed when I have a bit of cash anyway, dont like your tone above I will fly it, but will also upgrade the servo's in due course

yes mate, the one you set up, not messing with any set up mate, as know you have done it, just tidy some wiring, replace clunk if I can get some, and some cheaper blades instead of the radix I think

and the missus is gonna buy a new cano

Upto you it's your heli it'll probably need a little tweekin as no 2 DX7's are identical, plus i don't know what or if chris played with it because i only set it up on the bench but never flew it

You what kev? you dont like my tone?

Ive stepped AFK for 30 seconds but to hell with you ill say what i think now.
You have been given oodles of help and advice, even with the stupid topics like 'which solder is best?' (when your a sparky ffs).

Ive offered to give you my dx settings for the atom, i even offered to take it home and set it up. It flew hands off when i sold it to chris, and Callum flew it at the record attempt.
Instead of taking the atome and complete load of spares for what it was and enjoying it, you sell it to buy a trex 600. Within hours your talking about replacing servos!!!!

Kev, you have flown twice since i have known you and crashed both times, once the heli came over your head and you had a bewildered look on your face for a long few seconds and looked at us in the pits before you hit throttle hold... in fact iirc you funky chickened it for a good few seconds too.

I really do not want to be around you treating a 600 the same. You have been told by several people to not fix if it aint broke. Learn to fly and save the fixing for when it needs it.

You know what narks me even more? YOU preach advice YOUR given to other noobies here asking, but you dont take it yourself.

Think long and hard before you kick off, its not personal, i want you to enjoy the hobby, but you really need to listen to others sometimes and stop fiddling.

Im wondering if you really should consider the dark side, maybe an mx2 foam plane, its cheep to fix and youll find if you can fly one knife edge circuits, youll be able to fly a heli.

Rant over.
Congrats on the new bird.

jesus mate, take a bloody chill pill, and kev, a mate of mine has been flying 821's in his 2 600N just hovering around for a year or 2 now and they've been perfect

[adieuk]

the servos will be good for you kev

[challis349]

bloody hell, what you on, do you know what the smiley face is for, im not even going to start on you tom and your heli life as its not worth my time, and both times when I crashed, what happened tom, ive spoke to adie now, and damn, its no business of your what I decide to fly, oh and being an electrician is completely different to electronics by the way, f*ck me, Im asking a question tom, that I would have liked to have been answered in a nice way, not to just have a slating for,

oh and thanks for congrats on the new bird

[challis349]

the servos will be good for you kev

I was only asking for future reference

[chris jones2.4]
