Hey bud, how in world did you have a boom strike? Last time i did was in the wooden blade days. Seems to be not as common these days. Thanks for sharing.
haha! ya 1st off I forgot to switch up to higher headpeed before I started horsing around, second I poorly executed an inverted wall of death and dumped full negative pitch with full rear elevator. The X-Nova had the torque to overcome the load, so then the blade rotates in its bladeholder due to low head speed and strikes the boom. and yes I haven't have one either since probably a concept 30! not very common with the headspeeds we run nowadays. I'll remember from now on LOL. Thanks for watching!
@@mykel1969 Geez! That was dumb😂🤣🤣..j/k i'm a clown and an idiot. I will most certainly have to becareful because i really like low headspeed. I suppose i may need to tighten my blades up some too. I like running in the 1500 range, so i'll come back here when i have mine eat itself too.😆
Do you have any kind of fail safe when you get out of control? I haven't flown Helis in forever (Logo 600) and I believe the "save you butt" mode was just starting to come out. LOL
Thanks for the comment, No, I don't run a failsafe or bailout. Im one of those pilots that never seem to remember to flip that switch. I tend to freeze at the sticks if all hell breaks loose.Not to say I wouldn't recommend it, but you have to remember to hit that switch!
Hey buddy if you have any tail issues or with belt coming off, switch the tensioner to the otherside. There is a manual update out that actually shows it on the otherside. Also a video by greg jackson explaining this. If you already know this, please diregard. Thanks for the videos.
Very nice
some nice toys and so many of them and lovely plot for flying......great flying
thank you thank you! I appreciate the kind words!
For the fun of it, if you had to choose between your 420 comp, kraken 580, or raw 500 and could only choose 1. Which would it be?
the Kraken 580 for sure!
@@mykel1969 Yeah i cant blame you there, i mean they are all awesome heli's but the kraken is so unique. Thanks for replying back.

Yes there are mutiple fbl systems that have bailout
