Default Help: Converting My 450 Pro to a DFC. Any tips?
I have a 450 Pro TT. I want to upgrade it to the DFC head and go FBL.

Is it as simple as changing out the head or will I need a new main/drive gear as well?

I'll be using a BeastX for Gyro.



Thanks

You could also change to a DFC mainshaft. It is shorter than the stock mainshaft which moves the head closer to the CG. This is optional but one of the main reasons for changing to the DFC setup.

Yes, the changeover is quite simple, but servos come into play here since most stock versions will not handle the dfc head. Plus the align head is plagued with issues.
