Advice on Gyro for Spectra G

[wildc4rd]

Hi, just managed to aquire a Spectra G from a club member, fully equipped bar the gyro. I have seen it fly some basic 3D stuff with the previous owners Futaba GY401 on it, and have recently added an Align GP750 to my 600NP, so would like to use either of them if suitable. I've only been flying for 7 or 8 weeks, so for the moment the gyro on my models isn't having to work that hard, but I don't want to have to change it in few months either.

Advice apreciated on what can keep this big noisy thing pointing in the right direction. (Can't remember what he said the tail servo was, think it was the BLS 252)

Thanks in advance.

Sorry for the late reply only just seen your thread, I use a CSM SL720 on mine, others will correct me but I don't think the 401 is really recommended for 90 size heli's. It may be fine for mild stuff, I appreciate you've only just started and I'm no expert, but the CSM holds it very well. I have JR 770's on my T Rex 600's and these are also very good.
I've never owned one but the Spartan gyro, I think the 760, get's rave reviews from those that have them. Gassers don't seem to have too big a follwoing over here so it may be worth an ask on either RunRyder or Helifreaks which have bigger gasser sections.

Hi there, thanks for the reply, alass a little late, it already has a 401. Seems OK at the moment to be honest, so will stick with it until I find a problem.

Out of interest, how do you find the Maniac2 blades by the way, as I dislike the mah blades that are on it at the moment, they are too dark.
