    Great TRex 500 Flight that ended badly

    good flight .... what FBL unit are you running.... If you had an Ikon (V2 Firmware patched) you could have bailed out of that ... even better a Bavarian Demon 3SX for full inverted rescue

    General Dynam 450 Not Spooling Up

    yeah ... I think Stambo is right ... I have not owned a Dynam for ages ... and also the Throttle curve is upside down on the stick ... (Full is down and No Throttle is up) needs to be calibrated and set. Is the heli ESC initialising? should do the beep Cell count of the batts and then signal...
