HBK2 Frame stiffener

[JBuck]

When I do flips with my honey bee king v2 the frame flexes and the motor pinion seperates from the main gear.

Anyone know of a fix for this?

Or know where I can get the carbon edition frame?

I know that extreme productions is making a frame stiffener but I dont think it is ever coming out.

I have the full Esky carbon frame, and it is wonderful regarding stiffness and layout, but it was gifted to me. It's not available in a package, that I know of, and by the time you assemble all the parts you will have spent over $140. That's a BeltCP BB. Add another $20 and you can get a Dragonus airframe. I'd say hold out for the Xtreme stiffener or carbon frame.

If you want to do the carbon frame conversion, here's the parts list:
EK4-0184 Upper Side Frame <-You need 2 of these
EK4-0185 Bottom Frame <-You need 2 of these
EK5-0459 Connecting Rod (hardware)
EK4-0460 Motor Mount Set (hardware)
EK5-0461 Aluminum Cannula (hardware)
EK1-0597 Plastic Upgrade Set
EK1-0599 Main Chassis for E016 <-Bottom tray of the frame
Took-my-time assembly time: about 3 hours.

I don't know where my benefactor got all the stuff from. Do a Google search for the part numbers and see if it's worth it for you. I love it, but I can't say that's where I would have spent that kind of heli money.

Thanks Shizack

heres a place to buy the carbon fibre frame from, but I think you need to buy the idividual pieces, haven't looked into it too much myself, too many projects right now

just checked again, looks like it'd be in the $110-$130 range for full carbon frame and boom

There is a two piece fibreglass frame stiffener available from cy-model.com for the king and it is only about $5.00

[JBuck]

Thats just what I was looking for. $5.00 with free shipping!
WOW

THANK YOU!

superskids.com makes a couple different frame stiffener looky things.. i can t speak from expirence but they look like a tail boom mount with the landing skids might strengthin it enough..
i know this is off topic, but has anyone ever tried their batterys?
