Re: 130x Bling - microheli upgrades Seems like Gains and Luck are the only fix. Maybe 150 fire ball for this one too! |

Re: 130x Bling - microheli upgrades So I put all of the guts into a new frame. I went with the Lynx motor this time. Does anyone know how to stop the tail from uncontrollably wagging? Gear slop wouldn't cause this would it. There is a bit but not enough to cause this. It wags 4" left then 4" right non stop. Like it can't find center. |

Re: 130x Bling - microheli upgrades Good idea Max. LOL a rubber band! When I had the HP08 motor in it, it was fine. Then I was frying boards. So I went back to the Tall stock motor. It must flex when you land it upside down and eventually forms the plastic motor mount in the direction. TH always ready to trigger it! Sometimes not quite fast enough though. I ordered a bunch of new stuff for it to play with when the snow comes. |

I modded mine to have an elastic band go from behind the motor to the front of the battery tray. Not too tight, but just enough to put some tension on the motor. Pulling the top of the motor forward results in the bottom of the motor meshing better with the main gear. I flew like this all summer. about a month ago I put on a a new frame and the meshing was perfect. Have not had to use the rubber band trick since. PS- make sure you are fast on the throttle hold the minute you lose control- flying over thick grass (tall grass is even better) and hitting TH when you lose control lets your heli flop into the grass just like landing in a big pile of shaving cream- No damage- no stripped gears. You only strip gears when you are in idle up or stunt 2 and crash but dont hit throttle hold fast enough. |

Re: 130x Bling - microheli upgrades So I've been ripping around with this 130x for a while now. Yes it's crashed lots. Mostly the main gear gets replaced. Lately it's been more than usual. The main gear strips every time I dump it in the grass. When I looked closer the pinion isn't contacting the main gear like it used to. The motor is actually leaning towards the main shaft. With the frame being all plastic how the heck is this possible? I think I need a new frame to fix this. Has anyone noticed this with theirs? |

Once I replaced the B gear and went back to the stock plastic tail grips I tested it out. Right back to a rock solid 3D machine! |

Re: 130x Bling - microheli upgrades Changed the elevator servo and tail servo. All was good until I finally wore out the metal B gear. Waiting for a few new sets of As and Bs. This has definately been the best 3D trainer yet! |
