I've been thinking about the flybar that failed, I highly doubt it was a defect in the flybar itself, the likelyhood of there being a crack or defect at exactly where it comes out of the flybar cage are very unlikely. My opinion is that it "work hardened" the flybar, Continuous flexing of the flybar until the metal work hardens, bend a piece of metal back and forth until it breaks, same thing here.
I'm also thinking that the flybar may have only been tight on one side, (check to see what the flybar looks like where if should be secured) I wouldn't be surprised to see that it wasn't holding on the side that broke.
Remove and inspect flybar, might be able to learn more from a visual inspection. If there is a definate mark where the fastener clamped down on it then it is not a contributing factor. I"m thinking a loose fastener was part of the problem.

Guess you know nothing about this heli. First off, it has the power and size of a PiccoZ, and can't even hurt a fly. You can easily catch it in your hand, even with the blades spinning, and not fell a dang thing.
Your just looking for a reason to bann me. Give me a break.
I am not looking to ban anyone.
Almost every video I see of you flying there is somebody or some animal in harms way. Learn the basics like how to hover before trying to stick bang. What I said is that I think you are dangerous and I don't want anymore of your dangerous and disrespectful videos posted on this site.
This is not about banning, it is about respecting people in the proximity of where you are flying. It is also about safe flying attitude which you do not seem to understand and I hate it for you and everybody else around you. We need to help make this hobby safer, not more dangerous in the public eye and for the people involved in the hobby. It is that simple.
If this was about banning, you would not be here right now after that crap you put us through before we let you back once already. I cannot believe you are saying this is about banning and you want me to give you a break... We ALREADY have given you MANY breaks man, take a look at the crap you spewed before your last ban... it is all still here, we don't delete. YOU need to think about what attitude you are portraying on film and at the field. Everybody knows if you can't hover you cannot 3D, you are not fooling anyone.
:arggg::arggg::arggg:
This is the last I am going to comment about this but I wanted to make myself completely clear since you somehow mistake reality and respect with banning.

I agree about safety, and think we should be safety conscious and wasn't try to be a sick banger or fly unsafe, but was just having fun with a kids heli. Anyways, I already removed the video as to not offend anybody else.
Thanks.

Come on man you sound worse than me complaining about Jasons flying. Yes, I wouldn't like to have a heli hovering right next to my face, esp. a T-Rex, but complaining about that is just like saying a Picoo z could kill you. Lighten up:glasses2:

Hey guys, just made an order with HeliProz South to help support them and get their business going good. :)
I got an Align pipe at least five bucks cheaper than anywhere else. They got some good deals.

It should. I'm using a 3s 2170, so a 4s 2170 should give me more torque.
BTW, ur vid is up next Tim.

scott, the neu motor is heavy, is powerful, but heavy. a lighter weight heli performs 3d much easier imo.
