What dampeners are you all running?
I run KBDD lime green dampeners in my X5 and was thinking that they may also be good for the NX4, what do you all think?

They should work very good on the NX4 as well IMO.

The kit comes with black and red. Have you tried the red to see how they are first?

+1 for the reds. Been flying them hard and they work fine. I have used the lime green ones too and they're great as well, but no need for them until the red ones wear out!

No I haven't tried the reds in my NX4, I tried them in my X5 back when I first got it and never really cared for the reds to much. I like the lime green KBDD dampeners in the X5 so I figured I would try them in my NX4 as well

What I meant by not really caring for them to much was I never was able to fully get rid of a bobble when I had the reds in on the X5. If I had a hard collective or cyclic change it would get a bobble that you could tell was from the head. No matter where I set my gains at, I could make it less but never completely gone

Huh I'll have to look into the green ones too when my reds get sloppy.

I got a set of greens a 19 tooth pinion setup CF boom supports and tail pushrod yesterday. I can't wait to see how much it's improved

I'm running the black dampeners; they are a little soft but fly good. Going to try the KBDD limes next, when it warms up.

All my upgrades are genuine Gaui upgrades and I got them from my local heli shop here in Texas. He gets them straight from Empire. If your from north Texas it's Bobby Jacks Hobby. If you hit him up he will certainly treat you right
