Default CopterX FBL unit

Here's a flight from the weekend with my FBL B400 with the CX-3X1000. After about 10 tuning flights I'm really happy with the CopterX FBL unit. Not as good as the BeastX but awesome for the money. Headspeed is somewhere around 2800-2900 rpm.

Had my old blade converted to a permanent night rig. It was just standing collecting dust, so I thought it deserves to fly again

Nice smooth flight man. The insects are a pain when you fly.

WOW.. That was a few near crashes...
Probably a bent tail shaft or something with the tail blade grips.
That will give you that tail shake up and down. Could also be a totaled tailshaft bearing.

She flies great after getting rid of those tail vibrations (removed the $50 MicroHeli CNC Delrin gears and replaced them with $12 stock E-Flite gears).

Semi-Stock Blade 400:

Futaba GY401 Gyro,
EFlite DS76T Tail Servo (From Blade 450),
HobbyWing 40A Pentium ESC with 3A Switching BEC,
CF horizontal & tail fins,
CF main blades,
Boca bearings in EFlite 420 motor.
