What!!!!!! FBL Blade SR

[Raygun]

I did not think I could make the SR fly any worse so I decided to mod it into flybarless.

And since i was doing that I machined a new mount and installed a 2400 KV RimFire motor with 42mm blades.

The FBL head is tight and works good the tail is really ramped up from the 2000 KV motor that I installed in there before. The flybarless unit is a $29 Copter X unit yet to be mounted there is not much room here to play with.. Ray

Let me know how you like the copterx FBL gyro, Im thinking about getting one. Did you also get the program box?

Is it worth putting time and money nto the 120sr??? Why not Just build a cheap 450 clone with cheap shit??

[Raygun]

This is not the 120 its the blade SR (300 size) I am doing just because I can the tail is a DDVP.

No RC I did not get the programming box it probably would make it easier. The Align 3G unit I have is much easier to program than the Copter X unit.

That's going to be one sweet SR. I mean the only sweet SR. ;D

[Evan]

thats cool. didnt mean to sound negative.

I remade the mount from 3/8 aluminum bar stock I machined a spot for an extra bearing to handle the load. The Rimfire motor has a short snout and not much spacing between bearings this can cause the shaft to vibrate. To give you an idea how small the drill bits, taps and screws are I placed a dime next to the mount.. Ray

Well I made a mount to hold the FBL CopterX unit I may have to move or change the canopy not much room. Anyway now comes the dreaded programming.. Ray

Let us know how the programming goes, Im on the fence on getting one and they dont have the programmer instock.

[Raygun]

I dont think I would be on the fence about it RC it looks like a good one to begin with and at RC groups there is a bunch of people that have purchased them and really like them. There is also a couple of Videos on the setup of the Tarot brand which has the same programming as the copter x. The video shows step by step on how to set it up. This is where I got mine and they have everything in stock. They are fast about shipping and the cost to ship is about $7. They are also real good about answering questions and if you get a bad one there very good about replacing it. I have had some trouble with Wow hobbies.. Ray
