Does anyone have a video of their G2 doing 3d flights. I have looked and cant seem to find any. I would like to see what my heli can do.

Sorry don't have any vid but you should search You Tube. I seem to recall putting in G2 3D a while back and getting some stuff.
The G2 isn't a really good 3 D performer except in the hands of a very experienced pilot and even then it's not great because of design and material limitations. It will do rolls, loops, inverted and a bunch of other tricks just not very tight.
Happy landings

Ern I don't have a good camera. I've got an old DAT JVC. I don't even know if it still works. We stopped taking video 5 years ago.
Speaking of the G2; I had the lower main bearing seize up and it ate the frame. I rebuilt it this weekend and now I've got a huge violent and intermittent tail wag. I've reset the V-1 (still using the WK Tx) and now it won't hold a heading and wants to wander either ccw or cw. Changed gyros and it's doing the same thing so I doubt it's the gyro. I'm thinking maybe the V1 dial on the Tx isn't working right. Any thoughts?
Happy landings

By the way,for the OP,here is a G2 inverted. It has a sad ending but gives a look at the 90* head hard at work...

That's a very good representation of a G2 inverted. Ouch! No room for that outside loop at that altitude. If that's what he was going for. You definitely need 3X mistake factor altitude with a G2. ;D

BTW I finally got the G2 gyro trimmed out. I posted the procedure on pslr thread on his problems with the 35C.
Happy landings
