I browse these forums on occasion, but never had registered.
I'm going to do a total revamp of a FP FBL heli with brushed motors to fly with DSMX protocol and brushless motors.
Plan on a mini KBar FBL controller with most likely an OrangeRX 600X RX.
Idea was moving along till I came to the problem of an ESC.
I figured one like Blade uses on the 200SRX would be the ticket, but can't find one.
I have queries about this at a couple other places and thought I'd ask here too.
Anybody got any ideas? Maybe 2 separate ESCs, but then how to do the final wiring?
I'm stumped.

Hmm, posted here because I thought this was a pretty active forum.
That "captcha" thing popping up to make a post is sure a turn off.

This side of the forums tends to be a little quieter than usual!
I'm in your same boat. I have a hisky hfp100 that has been extremely faithful and a great simulator, but the main brushes are starting to burn out.

I would advice against BL tails on a FP given the good performance displayed by my hfp100's 7mm tail. If this were a CP micro then yes, a brushless tail would be useful, but in this application a brushless main is enough.

HKRC has some tiny brushless ESC's, perfect for a simple build. If you want a double brushless ESC, hobbyking makes one, but I'm not entirely sure if it is pnp.

Regards.
