Re: Trex 250 pro dfc build and discussion

Well I see what everyone means about upgrading to 3S and carbons compared to 2S & stock plastic. This thing is crazy! In a good way! Yet still super stable. The ZYX-S works very well with this machine too. Have yet to do anything more aggressive than chandelles. That will come soon.

Re: Trex 250 pro dfc build and discussion

I did read somewhere the 2s was a useable battery for normal flight. So I used it for set up and testing of the machine.
Chandelles are like hammerheads (sort of) for helis. More like a pendulum motion. fly upwards 45 degrees, tail 180, back down & then up the other side 45 degrees, 180, repeat. Thats what I've been told/read about them.
I hear weather supposed to be fantastic yet again today. 100% plan on heading out on lunch break for some more stick time.
Enjoy your flying today too!
