There is a pretty big difference in 690 and 710s imo. The 690 will smack alot better and the bigger ones will be more floaty and auto alittle better. Ive tried both and o
Prefer the 690 for my style

I'm still playing around with mine and swapping stuff around. Here's my current setup:
Scorpion Commander V 130 opto Align 700mx 530kv WR BEC wired for 12s Vbar full size blueline pro 610s on cyclic 650 on the tail (might try the Hyperion DH20X-GCD) Thor 45c 5000s (12s) Edge 693s / 105s

Are any team pilots running a YGE GovMode w/ 500KV motor? What percentage/head speed are you flying at?
Also, can anyone confirm the kit does not include batt straps? If not, now long do they need to be? Assume you need 2 per side, correct?

This should be made into a sticky so people can reference it from time to time

No gov here with a 500kv.. 100% flat.. Love it.. I believe Tony Whiteside is doing the same thing..
I'm using 4 straps.. Not sure of the brand.. I didn't want to use the Aligns, so my wife picked some straps up that are marketed for the rc car guys..

Yeah, its crazy, But not uncontrollable crazy.. LOL Of course the batteries I'm using have a bunch of flights on them, so they aren't the best.. Hopefully I'll have a few new packs next week. Right now I'm getting around 4 minute flights with between 20 and 30% left in the pack.. Its not near as ballistic as what I witnessed in the prototype testing.. I don't think I'd want any part of that!! haha

I'll have to look at that for you when I get home from work. Look for the response this afternoon.

Here you go:
Dial 1: 1.25 lines on the plus side past center Dial 2: 1 line on the plus side past center Dial 3: Just a tiny bit past 1 line on the plus side of center. Note that I did not adjust this until the tail bounced on stops. I adjusted it until the tail felt less soft. I think this picture will show things better... it's difficult to get fractional increments on the dials. It's a constant process. If you use different servos, blades, or run different head speeds these settings may not be ideal for you. Also note that I'm using an AR7200BX. Scott

i'll be using the ar7200bx also. im using the cc ice2 120 esc and shooting for the same headpseeds you have posted. but im using the 713mm and 110mm. so it should get me close. and i know each persons setting will be tailored to each persons feel.

You're welcome! You may want to go with 115's on the tail. You're going to have a larger disk than me and I use 115's. I use this rule of thumb is larger disk, more tail. Slower head speeds, more tail. It's still in how you fly, but those rules seem to work for me.

But in all seriousness, are those 10mm enough that gain can't overcome? I think I'll just run 115s on the tail always, even if going from 690 to 710s then. Is there a downside to running the largest tails possible? Sent from my Tapatalk using iPhone.

id have to get a different pinion to get close to 2200. looks like im gonna be right at 2000 with the supplied pinion. from what ive read the trex 600 or 700 helical pinion will work so im sure there is a 13 or 14 out there that will work

You know it really depends. I've never run 110's so I can't comment from experience. I would think that the proof would come in low or high head speed setups where a person uses quick collective bursts. I can tell you that with 105's and my head speeds the tail wasn't as solid as I'd like when I nailed collective. With 115's, it's as solid as I've ever seen. Scott
