Blade Stop

[Flybar-less]

unsuccesful:DOH

YOWCH! I hate to tell you this, but I think there might be some parts of your heli that are missing. In fact, I'd wager "most".

My deepest sympathies for your loss ;)

[OICU812]

WOW HOLY CRAPOLA! Intentionally you were trying a blade stop John?

They are very tricky, the rate at which you get the blades back to -2 to -3 ish is the key to getting em to turn, did the blade bunny ear on ya?

O $hit that sucks!

[Flybar-less]

This one was unintentional. Routine auto at the end of flight. It was really windy, cross to the field. Mistake was I turned final and dipped the blades into the wind just as big gust hit. Ever seen 10S lawn dart? I was approaching 200 flights on this heli.

Broke one blade, main shaft, bent the swash plate and a couple of push rods, bent the battery The canopy is trash, but I have 2 coming from the painter this week. It's almost back together.

DDDDAAAYYYYAAAAMMM man@!!! :mad: That sucks, good to hear you're almost back together man, 200 flights?? WOW probably more than I had all last season, lol.

I hope that is not a picture from the last 24 hours!

RJohn: I like how you've got the Rx mounted. Does that preclude the use of a second satellite?

I sure wish they'd not stick the connectors and antennas on so many sides of the box...

I can only use one satellite antenae. I guess you could drill a hole to get to the other one.

The Spektrum logger can be mounted, as mine is, and viewed through the canopy hole on top.

Yesterday - Learning inverted flight taking a heavy toll :( - at least the frames are good !

BTW had a oneway bearing wipe out recently on the L500 - minor smack involving blades and a few head links - ready to go but the one way a no way - not locked but not gripping either way in other words a NFW bearing :wink:

This 10S had a couple of punctures.

[Klinger]
