Quick flight with boom mod.

[Lynx.1677]

Flies so much better now. Really pops!

Sorry for bad quality, was filmed on my phone.

[Scotvar]

Flying nicely there!

I take it the same boom mod for the V1 applies for the V2 also?

Cheers!

Yeah same mod Paul, just longer boom from 2mm solid carbon rod.

[SamS]

Sweet! What batts you using? My nanos are losing their pop now, the overlanders are still ok.
The tail fin - lost mine ages ago. Suppose it helps to see which way the heli is pointing...

[Lynx.1677]

Boom is now 15cm long. I am using the standard 25C eflite batteries.

[SamS]

Cool, i just did the boom mod on mine as well

Are you using stock setting on the TX, only before, lowered my pitch rate to reduce the tail blowing out on full pitch, will it now be okay to set the pitch rate back to 100% ^v


Cheers

I have mine at 90% ail and elev with 10% expo. Going to crank it to 100 and see what we can do.

[SamS]

Is yours Hollow carbon rod, or solid, if solid, where/how did you mount the wires ??

[Lynx.1677]

It's solid rod matey. I just wrap it round the boom.

[Wood butcher]

Yep i done this mod to mine its wicked cheers Chap

[Delarado]

You can never set the pitch to 100% in travel adjust its just not powerful enough even if the tail holds it stops the motor!

I have travel for ail and elev set to 125% in travel adjust though, gives a faster flip rate.

Good Flying m8. I did a 150mm mod.

Yep can confirm the v2 loves a solid extended boom. You can fly highspeed backwards inverted circuits with it, what a training tool. The V2 on a standard boom feels like a V1 on a extended boom. The V2 still needs a solid extended boom as the standard one will break after 1 good rear entry to mother earth .With the mod it feels like a 450 with a half decent gyro.
