GT5 3 Axis Gyro (flybarless requires a flybarless gyro to be nice to fly) So far here is the part list I am using, I already have the servo's ready to be pulled from a dead Trex 700 but with a helicopter just remember, you can never be too quick on the cyclic servo's (or tail for that matter) especially when gyro's are concerned. Vibration can be more of an issue and the general setup and tune of a motor can take a bit of practice, you need to gather multiple skills to effectively tune nitro helicopter motors (more than just watching smoke) and sadly enough many of us burn our first nitro motors quite badly until we gather the said skills.īeing flybarless I imagine the head setup will be FAR easier (4 linkages will tell you that one) however the daunting look at the flybarless gyro makes me a little concerned, I can't imagine they will be much different to the tail just with around 4 times the settings. This time however I decided to put my years of building these things into some use and actually document most of the process, whilst a lot of my skills and build mannerisms come from Finless bob (arguably the best thing to happen to the community in a while) not everyone has heard of it and there seems to be a lack of Nitro building on flite test.īuilding a nitro Helicopter is much the same as building an electric in some ways but also requires a few more careful touches in others, for example locktite is required, especially as these things are quite large comparably to 450 size helicopters. I also apparently took the picture of the electric side.

(I know the pics bad, only just got the thing, no time to edit all this. So after biting the bullet, ordering and then buying the kit and items I have in my possession a brand new Titan X50 Flybarless with a TT53 and pipe for good measure (my old TT50 is getting a bit sad). So after much decision about if I needed yet another Helicopter I decided to just go for it, especially considering I have never built a Flybarless setup before.
