Your GAUI X7 Setup

[bwijk]

i do not see where you have went the wrong way.

[Chris Sexton]

You are fine. The 130 is because scorpion doesn't offer a 120. HW120 is plenty for that 4035 motor.

As for servos, the align 610s are a proven solution.

I think i went wrong with the servo's and the esc. I see alot of pilots with 130hv or more. I see a couple with 120hv's. I'm not a good enough pilot to notice the difference in the ds610's and the HV servo's that are out, but in comparison, they seem to be a little weak.

All of your hardware is OK. My concers is "Flight Style: Not even good enough to call it a style" and "Target Headspeed(s): At least 2000". I myself is a pretty all right pilot and Im only using 1950 as maximum headspeed. Its enough for EVERYTHING exept VERY hard smack.
If you are fairly good 1800-1900 RPM is enough for all 3D maneuvers and F3C maneuvers as well. As a bonus you will get more flight time.
I dont know what is going on when beginners use 2200RPM on a 700 size machine when 1500-1600 is all they need to learn to hover.
IMO things are about to go totally bananas with all these RPM's.

Since I've had mine for 4 months now I'm liking it real well since I've had it. It was my first FBL heli so i didnt throw her around to my skill level until i got familiar with her. But now she is nasty and thats the way uh huh uh huh i like it!

Anyone using gaui x7 with align 750mx 530kv..what pinion you use?..10T or 11T..

[Tangman]

Got my setup re-done,

When i did my remaiden with the torqs the servo spline of my aleron servo broke of after 2,30 minutes. The only thing i was doing was tail in hoover and some pyro's with hard stops.
Dont know if some other pilots had this problem? But Helidirect is not responding to any of my emails.
