We are all rooting for you James . Best off luck but I am sure she will be sweet. If you feel like a drive the Heli Fly is Sept 13-14
Take care

If mother nature cooperates I should be testing the rebuilt airframe this weekend. I received the rx pack, plugs, and some wire (thanks to Dennis for sending everything out fast) yesterday. Just have to swap plugs on the rx pack and run wires from it to my bec and then good to go.
I am going to spin her up without blades to make sure I don't end up with another rekit situation. 10 min screaming at full power while stirring the cyclic should tell me if another linknis going to break. I would of replaced every link if I had spares for the head and swash just to be safe. I see turnbuckles next in my future and maybe a taranis since I would have to goto an xg14 to get features I want in a radio. That and jr won't take the time to email me back with info about their telemetry options, primairly mah sensor to fly by mah instead of a timer. Frsky has a sensor suitable for the power system on larger heli's.

Hey James, hope your re-maiden goes better this time.
Yeah JR America are slow to respond sometimes. Customer service could be better on their part. I don't believe that you can use telemetry for mah, though I could be wrong. Receiver voltage is standard on dmss and add on sensors for a few other things like rpm and altimeter readings.

Already being done with jlog26 and tm1000 on a skookum. Cc esc with live data feeds the jlog sends the info to the telemetry module then back to the radio for warnings. Jr and taranis both have sensors for it but taranis has the higher current sensor that goes on the positive side between battery and esc. Jr's is limited to 80amps. Good for a 500 or less I suppose. With 100amp and up motors the tanaris sensor works but is fragile on the wire side. Jlog26 also supports it on cc with live feed. Can't wait to fly with a warning when I hit 70 or 75% of my capacity. Max flight times no matter how hard you fly.

Ticedoff in the skookum forum has his set up this way. Takes a couple of test flights to calibrate the jlog26 though. I put the three items on my bday list for my wife. Hopefully she picks the telemetry tm100p and jlog26 on it as well as the y-harness so I can still use my sk540 gov.

Got it all tested with the blades off. No links popped ir broke but I will not be 100% confident in this heli until I get a good dozen flights on it. Spun it up to 100% power for 11 min while stirring the sticks to see if any links were really weak. I would of gone longer but my radio died. 5 min should be reachable when under load if 11+ min of testing only brought the packs down to 3.95v per cell.
