HobbyMate FBL unit

[mrmarc]

That explains why the pictures in the HB800 manual look like the bigaole model.

"I also want clarify a couple of things.

1. the HB800 currently does not support satellites
2. The HB800 currently does not support sbus.

these features will be coming later when we update the firmware ."

It sounds like they will update the firmware, and right now there is not futaba/spektrum support.

I think with these clone units they are already making them for so cheap they would rather just sell a new one instead of making firmware updates. I doubt microbeast is working with them to make a cheaper unit. My conspiracy theory is that the BeastX I have says made in Germany but where is the spektrum/beastx unit made? Probably China so they got their hands on some code and made this unit.

It seemed the hb800 factory-BigaOle will release a BeastV3 clone soon.

hi does anyone know how to turn off the gyro without disconnecting it so i can double check the heli set up as i brought it ready to fly, and not sure how its been set up, i know this can be done with the align 3g gyro but have not seen anyway of doing it with the hb800. also what settings would you suggest i start with, as i tried with the settings it arrived with and it seems to drift about as much as it likes and small imputs didnt seem to do a lot, i can easily hover a honey bee ct ( 3 bladed head ) and fly slow lazy eights, but this seems to have a mind of its own. i have now changed the setting to sport but weather has put pay to flying at the mo, any advise would be most welcome

The guys in the decapping lab must have finally succeeded lol.

[PcChip]

did you read about the decapping done on custom SNES chips to help the guy that made BSNES, so that everything could be emulated 100% accurately?

Thought that would be up your alley Atomic Skull
