I've also solved a fair share of problems with helis which had the wires too tight into the gyro/fbl sensors. Like I would have wires hanging down near the main gear...

    I've always worked fully on my helis and have NEVER had a mechanical failure the exceptions would be with the Trex 450 feathering shafts working loose due to some kind of crazy oil anti rust additive they put in the packet, also my Logo 600 battery slid out once during an aggressive flight, partly my fault for not doing the straps tight enough and 2nd there are no good ways of holding the lipos in the Logo series.

    If you want to see a neat set-up don't look at my helis, but a working one day in day out, then look. I've also built and set-up helis for many who are very happy.


    Unless this is sarcasm - can't tell by text...
    I've seen wires on your helis hanging down near your main gear with my own eyes , your logo is one of the worst installs I've ever seen it just goes to show you can't have it all you are one of the best pilots in the uk but can not run wires so save your life. We have no problem with mini vbar sensors at all wires are loose enough. There is a lot of safety to running wires well you can see where each wire is going and that it's not rubbing on anything ect. Take a look
    At Matts heli it topped around 100 flights from someone who can fly as well as you !!! and it is fine you may learn something from a safety and building point of view !!!!.

          His comment though wasn't an 'I know best so do as i say' But just saying what he likes & what works for him. I would also be more than willing to let Laurence build a heli for me as he's far more anal about his builds than i am.
          Yes the big sigpic is coming back

              Ahahaha quite funny isn't it. It's all good assuming stuff but I've had 1000s of flights on helis I've built and setup (yes including the wiring) and not one issue with it. Go find someone else to complain about as making bs up is just impolite. I can't believe I'm reading what you wrote to be honest.
