[helijohn]

p.s Ive been following these little Helis for a awhile do you think they will release a v2

I think so but when. I mean, how long can I wait??

[Nick B]

No,they already come with gromits everywhere

Theres nothing else they can do to it tbh.

Here is a video of my swash.

That looks like the subtrim?

Can you do a model reset in the tx so theres no subtrim or trim,then rebind and try again and film it please.

[That Guy]

Above video is with no subtrim/trim, will do a model reset and rebind and film it.

[Nick B]

I just put subtrim in mine and it does not creep like yours.

If it still does it after you try a reset then you may just want to call HH

[That Guy]

After reset and rebind. All I changed on TX after reset was inhibit gyro and reverse pitch.

Definitely send that back. I'll PM you the name of the guy I spoke to in HH/UK who agreed that mine was faulty - For the money, you do not want that!

[That Guy]

Will get on the phone in the morning.

Thanks for you help gents

Spoke to HH yesterday. Got to send the 3in1 to them for inspection/replacement.

Took the 130x out today, amazing fun. Actually attempted some circuits today. Was surprised it handled the wind as well as it did. Did have a couple of crashes tho resulting in broken skids and a really bad crash = broken tail fin. Also the big bevel gear is looking a little worn, might get the option metal one. The TT keeps sliding back towards the tail shaft, anyone else have this issue?

What main and tail blades is everyone using? Coloured ones. KBDD? Does it make a difference not having the bullet things on the main blades?

If you main bevel gear is looking worn already, it sounds like it's not sitting right on the B gear. Check the mesh as from the sounds of it, your tail/torque tube isn't right either which could explain the excessive wear.

As for main blades, I've tried a few! Bottom line is you need the O ring mod if you don't run the bullet blades - and yes, they make a huge difference! The bullets a definitely more stable. I don't rate the KBDD ones, they bend in flight too easily and don't track. I'm currently using the Xtreme fast response blades, and (with the O ring mod), I think they're the best I've flown.

As far as I can see the mesh is fixed. I would say crashes are the reason the main bevel gear is damaged. No idea why the TT keeps sliding back?... Crashes?

Thanks for the tips on the blades. Just wanted to get some more spares and see the coloured ones. Is the 'o'ring set on FL?

The mesh is supposed to be fixed, but the B gear can move depending on the position of the TT, equally, the A gear can ride a little too tight if the main gear is pushed too hard against the frame. There's a thread on Helifreak about it, I'll dig it out.

Here's the O rings : 130X Silicone O-Ring Kit

Here's the link. I don't you need a shim or second collar, just make sure the main gear isn't too tight, hence pulling the A gear too tightly onto the B gear.

For everyone with gear mesh issues I may have a solution- VIDEO - HeliFreak
