Nice fleet :-)

It was the loud clunk noise and loosing tail control that gave it away, before I binned the Heli I saw the torque tube was jammed into the carbon, I found out today there was a replacement part issued for the first batch, as some torque tubes were a few mm to long.

I got my cyclic servos yesterday. Gonna install 'em today. Then I'll be programming the BX and the Ice Lite. Never done that before. Why do I feel like I'm going to have some frustrating times for the next week?

By the way, which should I program first? The BX or the Ice Lite? Does it even matter?

Default New 550 Innova
I just finished putting my 550 Innova together. Still can't believe how big it is...

Now I just need to purchase the electronics (already have the motor), but I'm going to do that slowly to ease the wallet's discomfort.

Now I need to get on the ball, program my 450sd, and maiden it.

Peace.

Crash it lol.

Looks like the pin that goes through the gear on the tail output shaft came out as the gear is just spinning on the shaft which caused me to lose the tail.

Went in nose first hard!

I got myself a new motor for the agile 7.2. A new scorpion 4530 450kV motor! My setup will be on 14s with a YEP 180HV esc.
