  • Loving the 500 again after a Beasting last night!

    I was thinking about selling the 500 for a 550 as it dont get flow much and due to constant vibe probs i've been having with it.. but in the end I decided to beast it instead.. as i'd rather keep a best of both worlds heli for the field next to the house

    Well it only took me 2 hours to get it converted (which most was having tidy wiring due to ocd) and the beast is on the bottom plate, as I read the rx tray was pants and I didnt like it ontop off the boom mount as its untidy.. The Beast however only took 15mins to set up as its my third one now

    Just been for 3 packs this morning and WOW.. its transformed it.. its much more powerful, truer and faster than I expected.. and really liking the hands off hover that seems to last forever! I feel the the Beastx has made the biggest difference out of the 3 that I have and i'm sure this will now be flown alot more! Just got to decide whether the 450's going or converted now!

    FBL IS the Future! lol!

    Eddie I wish I had kept my 500 esp after seeing Ross coming on so well flying his I realised selling mine was a huge mistake. I've recently Beasted my 450 pro & the tail which was always a problem on it is held bang on now. It's weird how I just cant get a feel for my 450 it doesnt fill me with confidence. I think its because I dont see it well enough to have full control of it.

          It is defo a cool change.. like i've already posted.. I still think this heli has biggest noticable difference changing to FBL for me.. (not sure about the 90 as never flew one beofre and mines being a pain! lol) Just a quick one guys.. I seem to be getting a noticable twitch from the torque.. have you guys got it and how did you dial it out?

          I'm the same Martin.. I cant seem to get on with 450's and I think 500 is the smallest i'm comfortable with.. just like you, I do think its that I cant see them well enough
