Re: Getting Back into R/C Helicopters
That's right, I was thinking of "Viscious" who lives down south.
I got to see all the Trex models actually the electric and Glow this past weekend. Along with pretty much all the Miniature stuff including the new 50 electric Razor they are making.
Watched Bobby Pile it into the ground was awesome, Not to make fun of pretty much the top pilot flying right now but he didn't mount the gyro down well enough and it came loose, so no tail control, happened right in the middle of a piroflip at about 4 feet off the ground. It was up and running again in 40 minutes though.
Anyways I'm currently still flying Futaba's old 8UH (not even the super 8) but if I'm lucky by next week I'm looking to get a new Futaba 9Z radio with Synth RX/TX - ya I know it's not the FAAST system but Futaba is coming out with it and when it does I'll be buying the module pack for it.
I was shocked to see how many people were using the new Spectrum DX7 radio at the field almost everyone. I thought for being so cheap they wouldn't be that good but everyone was using it, even bobby watts was using it, I think for his electric heli. He has the Futaba 14HZ ($2200 radio) for everything else.
