Glad to hear you're keeping your Protos Dr. Dremel. I'm really curious about how a fly barred Protos would feel.
I put four more flights in today on my "new" Protos for a total of eight so far since purchasing. This cold weather is torturing me but I guess that's what I get for buying a heli at the beginning of a midwest winter. My used rig came with a high-visibility Fusuno canopy but I couldn't help ordering the classic design canopy. This heli looks so amazing in a side-in hover, illuminated by an early sunset.

In other news, I fixed my Protos after the latest incident. Damage was pretty light, considering the fact that the blades were completely shredded - FS, one blade grip, pitch link rods. The solid main shaft appears to have survived intact.

I had a few flights with my new batteries. Quick punch out, and it's so nice to not hear the headspeed drop off after a few tictocs.

Ack! Head speed drop off is dreadful sound when your batteries are nearing the end of their life.
Today I explored the advance setup menu in the Brain. I bought the heli used BNF and went through the wizard to confirm settings and it flew okay. Now looking at the advanced menu I see vastly different PID settings for Aileron and Elevator. Also expo is set at -20 for aileron, elevator and tail! I'm surprised it flew as well as it did. Either I'm missing something or these parameters are way off.

Good to know, I'll leave them as they are. Thanks Dr. M.

Repaired some light crash damage and fitted bearing upgrade kit. Had time for a quick test flight all seems good, just got to finish tail setup.

Oficially had my first dum thumb with a protos! Was getting used to inverted hovering, let it slide too low.... And (i think) accidentally hit throttle hold... had a brain fart and instead of flipping out (i just finished setting autorotation bailout), put it in with almost 0 headspeed tail in... Nice thing, around 16£ damage! Spun it with only head hub attached, no significant vibes! Only main grips, fbl grip balls, fbl links and maybe spindle! Sigh... 106 flights, crash nr 8!
P.s. what you guys are doing to get broken ballinks out of main grips? My last 3 crashes i had to swap main grips only because i broke off ball links(secured with a lot of ca! ) Question nr 2. Any suitable aftermarket turnbuckles for low fbl hub? |

Flew 3 packs with my stretched plastic after quite some time. I still like it like the first day I bought it!

What did you do with your PRÔTOS today?
Unpacked some spare parts I picked up during Black Friday. Also cleaned out the parts box. Only a Protos owner will know what these are and how come I ended up having so many

I flew a FB protos for the first time today. It was really sluggish on the cyclic but I think that is because of the very heavy pro 3d blades (maybe they are not even fb blades I don't know). It's not as different from FBL as I thought it would be.
