You should really change the gauge wires!!
Hi,
there has been a lot of talk about this before, but I did not read of anyone who tried it on the Factory BL Nano upgrade: Change the gauge wires for something thicker and solder them directly to the board(s)! see similar topic here: https://www.helifreak.com/showthread.php?t=500367 https://www.helifreak.com/showthread.php?t=499735 If I remember correctly, Dylan tried to swap some cables, but didn't see improvement, but what I did DOES GIVE MORE POWER ! I must admit I have no proof, but I really was not soo much happier with the Factory BL update, compared to the original motor (and that had been in the air for ~12 month ), and after doing the things described here, I feel it must be approx 10-15% more power or so. Don't hit me, I didn't take comparision videos or any other measures. btw: no flighttime compare, and I use the Mylipo 205mAh, which must be somewhere about what the 200 Oversky/Microheli performs. Here's what I did: - buy 24AWG PVC(?) copper wire (0.25mm²). it's weight is ~0.038g/cm - get a small molex to exchange the standard connector to the Lipo. - this results all in all in a wire-weight of ~1g vs 0.8g of the old (incl. BL wire/connectors) - take off the mantle of the BL-ESC (it weighs ~1g!) - solder everything together and glue the ESC to the board (I used 2 dips of HotGlue, but don't forget to screw the board to the Frame before you cover the screwingholes with the ESC (!!!) - I had to take the ESC off again LoL!!! ..or position the ESC better than I did, but you would have to renew the wire to the motor also, because it's too short..) use this method to solder the new battery-wires: http://www.hacksmods.com/2013/02/bru...-lead-upgrade/ https://www.helifreak.com/showthread.php?t=500256 some impressions: please don't blame me for the bad soldering, I was happy enough to get the wires together properly before soldering them to the ESC... if you look from the distance, it does not look soo bad [for the ones interested: My RTF nano weighs 36g, but that is with my heavy 5.75g Lipo and airtime skids (1.2g vs 0.65g orig) and undestroyable v911 canopy (2.4g vs 1.5g orig). Additionally, I use Lynx Swash & epoxy-hardened default tailboom (mcpx-version to come..), and some epoxy & hotglue here and there on the frame..] Thanks to P@reez, mixfisto, Daryoon, Dylan & special thx go to Boris for his expertise and the molex connector & all the other guys for their hints related to this issue! joseph |

Yannicflight frame with mcpx skids
Getting ready to put this together when I get one more piece in the mail. This frame wants msrx skids which are stronger for the stock battery, but I want to run MCPx batteries. I guess it will work like it is, but is there a better solution? I was thinking the best solution would be another post hole in the back of the frame to accommodate the different landing skids OR cut the top rails of the MCPx skids. That plus an angle support on the front post and more space for the 3in1 board. Also a little stiffer design for the tail boom would be nice. Love the extra thick canopy pins and the motor mesh is perfect. Is this the bl future Dave? ^

Yannick frames
I have heavy duty Yannick frames on two dbl bl nanos. I have another HD Yannick frame and another dbl bl nano but I want to try the lighter of the two Yannick frames on my third nano.
Durability report: A hard parking lot crash broke a canopy pin. Just the end 'titty' broke off so I probably can drill and replace with a little CF. These frames are tough! I have crash tested very thoroughly. very. I think these frames are easier on the main gears too. Even when I have been slow on the TH switch the gears don't seem to strip out. With the modded Blade frames I was changing gears often "like diapers at the day-care". If you are asking me about the future of bl nanos, yes, this is very good for now. BUT I want a sub-30 gram heli with FPV, GPS navigation, 20 minute battery and a good lost heli locator/beacon.

Finished my build
I would like to thank the following aftermarket manufacturers/suppliers just for making the best parts: Nano CPX frame with double AR guide yannicflight KBDD MCPx Landing Gear V2 - Pink asteroid designs Nano CP X !! WILD !! V2 brushless kit asteroid designs swashplate microheli dfc head & spare parts xtreme-production dfc center hub xtreme-production battery - nanotech 300mah 45c hobbyking mcpx female plug 10 piece overskyrc HP03SPE shaft 1.2mm shaft overskyrc Bearing Replacement Set lynxheli 95mm green 3d-r main blades lynxheli 42mm green tail blades lynxheli o-rings lynxheli 7mm tail motor holder round lynxheli titanium & carbon mainshafts lynxheli new stock blade nano LHS The punch is incredible on pitch pumps with the Wild v2 and MCPx batteries. 39grams AUW and 8.5 grams is the battery so prolly could be a 31 or a 32 gram auw bird with this frame and more weight mindful parts, but you do the math and build. Lovin the nylon frame with the fat canopy pins and motor removal ease, not that I ever plan on removing it. The motor actually popped out on a little bounce so I ca'ed it with a toothpick. DFC head has no play and will hover hands free for about 15 seconds with no vibes of course and it responds quicker to direction changes due to no slop. Just got to get it over grass and try some no slop tic tocks. Lynxheli 3d-r blades are just awesome, so is the 7mm tail holder with the 42mm blades for a lock. MCPx landing gear rarely breaks especially the stock MCPx lg. Pink lg is flashy and my favorite color:p Now I am making a vacuum molded canopy. Enjoy the pictures. The fun never ends!

Or you could go this route which includes the weight of the servo mounting screws.

One of the unintended benefits of that gizmo is that it tilts the bottom of the servo out, to gain clearance for the bigger aftermarket motors, and resolves the problem of the servo links to the swash from rubbing against the servo mechanics.

Yannick frames
Does anyone know the weight difference between the HD and light Yannick frames?
Does anyone have a light Yannick frame. My black HD ones weigh 2.6 grams. I have 2 of the heavy duty Yannick frames in service and after a lot of trying have managed to break one canopy mount at the very end 'titty'. It looks easy enough to drill and use a little CF to replace it because there is a lot of material there. And since the canopy stays very nicely with three pins I am putting off that repair for a little while.
