| From PERSONAL experience I can say that ESky transmitters are junk, including their new 2.4GHz ones. (I class anything that doesn't work after two days as junk)
The Belt CP is miles better than it ... |

Another one worth looking at is the Walkera 4G1B 2.4 GHz. This is a second-generation Walkera #4, brought up to date with ev ... |

As to what next, what are you considering? Any of the coaxials are easy to fly and E-Flight, ESky and Twister are all pretty good. Avoid dodgy three channel ones (t ... |

Make sure the aerial is screwed in tight on the transmitter. Check that the crystals are pushed in firmly on the transmitter and 4-in-1. A q ... |

| It isn't a digital servo and any small servo (Towerpro are nice) will do. Replace 'em both. You were lucky, a stalled servo can sometimes damage the 4-in-1. Guess how I know.

Forum: HoneyBee (Fixed Pitch) Posted: Fri Nov 28, 2008 8:14 pm Subject: Lipo Battery Problem....Or Not |
| A decent charger (like a Cellpro 4s) or even a decent balancer might save it.
On the plus side, your charger detected the problem and didn't try charging the battery... Kev |
