    Thanks for posting this build review!! What a nice little heli!
    Rmk: the tail fin is the part of the tail that touches the ground when the heli is stored without battery and with the main blades folded back. It keeps the tail rotor blades from contacting the ground. I do believe that part is carbon fiber.

      You may be right, thanks

    Thumbs up. More people should care about small helicopters for their natural high endurance of flight time. I modified my 230s to become a FPV helicopter at 249 grams and HD onboard video recording that flips and snaps with 35 minutes of flight time per charge. No quads under 250 grams can ever beat that, not even professionally designed DJI. They either have to change a battery and going over 250 grams, or they have to turn off HD video and turn off FPV and navigation and make the drone fly in a circle at constant speed to get that advertised 35 minutes per charge, and even then, they can't snap or flip.

    Very nice, can’t decide if I want one of these or not. Looks like a very nice kit.

    Any advice on TB40 tail rotor setup? It seems there is uneven travel / More travel rudder left than right. How did you setup your rotor? Do you notice any issues in flight?

    • @raymhuang
      @raymhuang  7 месяцев назад +1

      I have plenty of adjustment for my two different tail servos (KST Ds565 and Theta THM982) in the tail rod. I set up with tail blades a few degrees to the right to counter torque and up up pretty close on left and right travel in the radio, but not exact numbers (not required).

    Thank u! I have the tb70 and I'm looking
    At the tb40. Aligns manuals are definitely not the best. How's performance and power?

    • @raymhuang
      @raymhuang  11 месяцев назад

      I'm a beginner, but it feels like it's got loads of torque. Physically the motor is huge.

    Hi Ray, I am building this heli now and was wondering if the ESC comes in GOV Mode? It will have a Futaba radio and Spirit 2 FBL controller. Just built a OMP M4 and M4 Max last year and this heli is a bit more complicated to put together. My two OMPs fly great with their direct drive motors on the main shaft. Very simple to maintain. All three helicopters use the same batteries.

      I am not sure what default is TBH. The program box is fairly cheap, I would get that if you dont have it already. If not you have to set it with beeps! NO thanks,

    for what purpose do you use the super lube grease? is it synthetic grease?

      It's a silicone grease that I use on body grommets, O-rings, head and tail shafts and dampers.

      1800 HRB for me, but I think a little heavier better to balance.
