Can't fly anything LOS to save my life. FPV just works better for me.

Took some video of me flying my FPV helicopter. It's terrible, but it's better than nothing! Flight Video

I've created a build log using imgur, so I'm just posting that. Enjoy!

Um, to be honest, I didn't actually know those existed. That being said, I suspect that my FPV setup is going to add negligible weight compared to the power of the helicopter. A couple other reasons I guess: I'm using really high quality components and the flight controller (which is meant...

Yes, and I'm hoping to get some more exciting shots and videos once I get the FPV system completed. It's all working properly, I just need to do a little more machining to get everything mounted nicely.

So initially I was running my 450 with a single spektrum satellite/remote receiver, but it has no telemetry, which is kind of a deal breaker for me. So I picked up a Spektrum SPM4650. I wired it up, got it bound, everything is good. But, I don't know if it is compatible with the satellite...

Oh shit my bad, definitely will do landscape next time. Not used to taking vids.

I think I got it.

Here's a video of a 450 clone I just got flying. Just a simple flight test, I can't do much more than a nose-out hover anyway.

I think it is straight up chinese. I was convinced it was a clone, but apparently not. It's pretty nice, I'm not unhappy with it. It definitely is flying nicely, so far. Still, I think I'm gonna go for a SAB next.

Servo geometry and frame is wrong. Maybe it's an old Tarot?

Yeah, true. Doing my best to do so between the crashes! Here are couple quick pics. By the way, can anyone identify this helicopter? I'm not sure what specific model it is.

Great! I will try to put a quick one up within the week. FYI don't expect anything nuts, I'm no crazy pilot. I can't even nose-in hover.

Just thought I'd update you - I got the 450 in the air and it's flying really well. Maybe I'll post a video or something.

Yo I figured it out, phew. There is a setting during binding, "Enable Max Throw" or something, that I hadn't enabled. I enabled it and rebound, and now everything is working as expected. It's always the little things huh.

I can try I suppose. What's the reset process? You know, I wonder if it's being caused by some setting I selected on the front page. The one where you choose the heli and servos and etc. So I think a full reset is worth trying.

Damn, ok. Can't ever be simple, can it...

I actually did start a completely brand new model. It's weird, cause I don't see any differences (besides the obvious, I guess) between how I've set up the 250 and how I've setup the 450. The primary difference between the two I guess is the hardware I'm using. On the 250 I'm using a FrSky X8R...

Well it's not just the throttle channel, all of the channels are behaving this way. Also, I'm not 100% sure I've got the definition of dual rates right. Could you elaborate?
