Hey,

So got my digital tail servo ( Robbe FS 61 BB High Speed Digital Servo, 8520 ) in and set up, worked brilliantly with the GY401, on DS mode and with 0 delay and 90 gain. rock solid.

so put the belt back into the heliartist fuse, took her down stairs in to the car park for a test flight! one battery of testing all seemed ok, so 2nd battery in idle up and i only got 1.25 min before the esc 50% kicked in! it was toasty hot. a couple of seconds later tried again and was ok for another min or so then 50% again. this time when it hit the deck it snaped a wheel!!! so testing over.

2 things im considering:
1: the ESC can't cope with the extra load with the weight
2; the thing with the spectrum risistor thing?

So Im thinking get the spectrum thing, and a seperate BEC and maybe a new ESC, ( CC Pheonix 45a or a Scorpion 6 cell 45A ESC )

what do you guys reccon?
