As I beginner, I love these videos. Thank you very much for taking the time to make them.
You’re welcome, Toby! I hope they are helpful! You can use some of these tips on your 420 to help slow it down or be more your style.
Nice back to basics not everyone bothers with this. It is with pleasure to watch this.
Thank you! My goal is to have a back to the basics series to help newcomers and old comers into the hobby! It is important that we help beginners so our Hobby continues to grow!
I learned to fly on a 600 size nitro helicopter. After that phase I went to a 700 assembly. Bigger is always better because you can see what you are doing. The only reason smaller size platforms have become the new norm is cost.
Great info as always! I definitely needed to tune down my S2 to make it a little more newbie friendly.
very good info for any beginner in the hobby. applies to any vehicle in the rc hobby.
Thank you Bob! I hope this video finds a helpful!
Good info nice to see a helpful learner video
Thank you! I hope the video is helpful!
Can you do this with the goosky flight controler??? Just ordered a goosky RS4!! Love your build video but need to set it up for beginning mode
Great concise video. I don't know if you had mentioned it on the video but its usually not recommended to ad dual rates or exponential to both the tx and ikon/brain fbl controller. Its more precise (provides greater resolution) if only the fbl controller is used for feel with the tx providing raw signals. Always great watching your videos.
Awesome 💯 Thank You REALLY APRICIATED THIS VIDEO
Big up the old skool walkera #4 massive. I still have 2 of them (ripmax Sabre).
Thank ya, Great info and refresher for some. :)
Thank you! I hope the video is helpful!
Génial pour les débutants, mais peut-on faire de la petite 3D en style de vol "beginner" sur le brain2 ? En bref mettre l'helico sur le dos. Une petite vidéo sur le sauvetage serait vraiment sympa !!
Tout est possible à partir du moment que tu as un mode idle-up avec une courbe de gaz en V/plat ou un régulateur, la principale différence résidera dans la réponse des servos, qui sera plus ou moins rapide, donc forcément tu pourras passer sur le dos, mais fait le à une haute altitude au cas ou les servos soient trop lent, mais tu le sauras en vol au fur et a mesure que tu connais ton hélico.
Yes, you can do soft 3-D, and set up one or beginner set up in the Brain/iKon 2. But just remember everything is extremely slow. But! You don’t want a 0-60-60-60-60 throttle curve in that mode or “normal mode. You would want a flat throttle curve so 60-60-60-60-60 for example. I am working on a rescue video as we speak. Should be out shortly.
And you also need to make sure you have a linear pitch curve in all three models or any mode you plan to do 3D in.
Have you had issues with a drift while in auto level? went through your setup and its perfect except I have a mild drift to the rear and left. Is that in the head level or can i set that with the app?
Great video Jeff thank you. I‘m actually fighting with tail wag and tail bail out with my fireball hawok - can you tell me what number of tail gain you are flying with your fireball. Thanks a lot, Daniel
Hey Daniel, thank you very much! What a FBL are you running? Is everything in the tail free and smooth? I have a video on Tailwag if you have not already watched it. I’m running 38,36 and 30 for my tail gain with a iKon mini.
Hey Jeff thank you for your quick answer. I fly iKon 2 and the tail seems free and smooth, like in your tailwag-vid. It‘s scary in upright flight the tail hold, but suddenly in inverted flight the tail totally bail out……
Please; Could you do a setup for beginners in mikado evo?
I have an AS3X and can't access any forward programming so I'm asking, can I also adjust the pitch range from the transmitter by playing with endpoints maybe?
cheers mate
Yes, you can, go to your servo travel and Go to pitch and adjust it positive or negative to your desired pitch numbers.
Hi thank you for your videos! I’m trying to bind my dsmx (latest version), but does not bind. A receiver is necessary to bind? I cant bind directly with ikon? Thanks
I’m more of a futaba guy, so I can’t directly answer your question but for my setups, Yes all of my helis need a corresponding receiver, and then a flybarless system(gyro) .
I believe with specktrum you need a receiver as well as a satellite that hooks into the receiver. But I’m sure Jeff could answer your questions in more detail then myself!
Thanks. Do you need to set up for S1 as well? I am a beginner and s1 seems to be too fast. Thanks
I would say add some expo on your S1 and that will definitely help
Thanks man. Quick question. I have an ix 14 and just binded to my blade 330s. Well I have everything set up but I have no elevator. When I move my throttle it shows fine but elevator stays dead zero…
Thank you for watching! Hmmmm so when you’re in your channel monitor and you move your elevator stick nothing moves? What about aileron stick?
@@westhobbiesrc8051 I figured it out! Just getting used to this brand new ix14 being from futaba.
can you use ardupilot with a heli like this?
You can buy GPS FBL units. I don’t know anything about ardupilot. H1 makes a FBL GPS but I’ve seen guys use ardupilot on heli’s.
What is a good hover pitch in degrees? Is it supposed to be 0?
0 is mid stick, hovering will be anything around 4-6 degrees depending on the heli. Some helis a little more and some a little less.
@@westhobbiesrc8051 Thanks much! Prob hovering at 3/4 stick is what is ideal. Your videos have always been helpful to us. ❤️
How many degrees of pitch would a pro use?
Any where from 13.5-15 degrees depending on the setup and head speed.
@@westhobbiesrc8051 ty was just curious!
People you do realize the transmitter he is using cost over $1000 dollars.The average modeler can't afford such a device. I am currently using a Spektrum NX8 and that set me back $500 dollars.
It does not cost over a $1000 it’s under. It’s $900 to be exact. It’s a very well used radio in the hobby, I also have a NX8. A lot more people prefer spending the money one time and have a great radio for many many years.
