silone74 Posted February 10, 2015 Share Posted February 10, 2015 I am trying one of these out and although it is my first 6 channel heli of my own I have flown others before well flown in a manor of speaking lol, I am finding it a really nice heli, 6 axis gyro helps alot I think Any one else have one or flown one previously that has any review or comment on them Si Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
silone74 Posted February 12, 2015 Author Share Posted February 12, 2015 No one then lol, only my second flight and one servo fried causing a crash, snapped blade, snapped ball link, dented boom, motor moved luckily far enough not to strip the main gear. Disappointed seeing as it is actually a great heli to get to grips with, the devo 7 tx is not bad really, instructions are quite clear so now I am waiting for parts before I can get flying again but the only thing is the parts are from Hong Kong I can't find a UK supplier.

boombox Posted February 13, 2015 Share Posted February 13, 2015 how much did you pay for your heli? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
silone74 Posted February 13, 2015 Author Share Posted February 13, 2015 (edited) I bought it second hand but previous owner only flew it a couple of times before, came to me with 2 lipo's, spare blades, pitch gauge, blade balancer, I am not joking when I say it looked un used cheap, they are quite a lot more new but I wouldn't want to buy new for this very reason of crashing lol.

silone74 Posted February 14, 2015 Author Share Posted February 14, 2015 I think there are some bargains to be had with heli's at the moment, alot of 450 size I have seen on selling sites are not fetching what the seller wants, I have missed a few on ebay by a couple of quid that went for under Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
silone74 Posted March 10, 2015 Author Share Posted March 10, 2015 Problem with the replacement servo, it has burnt out while I was setting the swash plate so on with a warranty claim and fingers crossed it isn't a problem with the rx although the other servos are perfectly fine Si Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
