THE WALKERA HM 1#A IS A GREAT BEGINNER'S 6-CHANNEL BELT CP HELICOPTER. WHILE IT IS GREAT TO FLY, UPGRADING TO A FLYBARLESS ROTOR HEAD SYSTEM WILL MAKE FLYING AND REPAIRING THIS HELICOPTER REALLY EASY AND FAST. LESS SPARE PARTS WILL ALSO REDUCE THE COST OF REPAIRING. ADDITIOANLLY, ADDING THE NEW 3G TECHNOLOGY (FORMERLY 3-AXIS GYRO TECHNOLOGY) WILL MAKE IT MAKE IT EVEN EASIER TO FLY. THE 3G TECHNOLOGY ALLOWS FOR AUTOMATIC FLIGHT STABILIZATION WHEN FLYING. JUST REPLACE THE FLYBAR HEAD WITH THE FLYBARLESS HEAD AND THEN REPLACE THE OLD RX WITH THE NEW RX. IT'S THAT SIMPLE. BELOW IS A VIDEO OF THE WALKERA HM 1#A FLYBARLESS IN ACTION !!!

Nice video so have you tried any of the flybarless 4ch FP helis on your page yet? I was thinking about one of them if there is a nice stable one. Also what do ya think about the walkera radios? Finally i would make one recomendation. When your doing the inital description in the video, i would recomend writing a script first, then as you fly do like you did about just talking about it off the cuff. nice video.
I think you could get that gyro off with a thin blade and some paint thinner on a cutip i bet.

A decent 4-channel Flybarless would be the Walkera V200D01. It comes with a main brushless motor and the tail is shaft gear driven. We modified it with an 11.1v 500mah LIPO which supercharges this helicopter. The brushless motor will get hot so let the motor cool down after flying.
Below is a video with the simple mods for this helicopter.
Again, thanks for the script idea as I respect commentary from the members on this Great Forum.

Just finished the upgrade on mine. Again, RTF knows his stuff.
Prior, with paddles, it was a 6-yr old at Chuckie Cheese. Wander, wander, wander, wander. With the conversion to flybarless, it can hold a tighter hover.
I've still a few tweaks to do, but overall? This works!!

Okay, update time: I blew out the ESC. It quit flying on me, okay landing in the grass, but upon exam, the ESC stank, and as some have warned me, once it stinks, it's gone to see The Big Electron. Thus, RTF is being nice about this bigger motor he sells. Long story short, he sold me a killer kit, new ESC and motor. I just installed all of this about an hour ago. I was happy before, right? I'm blown now. Words fail me, but as I told him: It's like the difference between piston and turbine. I have the hottest collective now, I bark, it snaps to position without waiting. Again, very nice copter, but the flybar is a waste and yes, replace the motor first try and get it over with, now, I am wishing I had all along. Complain? No! Super copter now! ;D So, there's the latest. Now 24 flights, lovely performance and now, power out the wazoo.  Can't thank RTF enough, except as I teased him, methinks he works for a certain FS manufacturer and hasn't let on as of yet....  |
