Default conversion to fbl

guys, i have a couple of 700 LEs that I converted to fbl a while back. i didn't change the aileron arms or mainshaft. compared to my 550s the heli feels a little springy and I'd like to tone it down. are you folks flying nitro using the newer aileron arms with the inner hole and what about the elevator arm? thanks in advance....i fly edge 713s so i am not going the DFC route.

I have just converted my 700n to fbl, I used the shorter main shaft and I have ordered the 700e elevator arm and bell cranks to get better geometry on the vbar.

I don't think you would need that parts with the fb main shaft though?

I have been flying my 700LE with the first style FBL head. (not the DFC) It works fine with the stock aileron and elevator arms the one's with only one hole just be sure to use the inner hole with the Align servo wheels. I also use the FBL main shaft it set's the head down a little lower than the FB main shaft this is all ran on a Microbeastx It works perfect and it flys amasing! But I'm slowly converting over to the 700E arms and DFC head.

I converted mine using the newer 700e bell-cranks, elevator arm, FBL main shaft, Quick UK FBL servo wheels and using the Align 3GX head (swash driver directly attached to the hub)...with the BeastX, it flies like it's on rails!
