Nice flight! Could you explain what exactly you mean when you say this Blade 230 feels sloppier? Is it like, there are some delays in reaction when you do collective or cyclic inputs, compared to other helis? It feels more natural than 'robotic' or what?
Thanks. Yes it seems to delay then overshoot the command. Very rubbery feeling. It's like there's too much feed forward programmed into the control loop. Makes it so hard to fly smoothly and consistently. Imagine it doesn't feel like stops are at the "same place" each time and then it even overshoots the original command! Very unsettling feeling. I can't believe they think this was fit for a beginner. Flying helis equipped with brain2 /ikon2 and vbar and it's like night and day. I remember the day I first flew my Oxy 2 with brain 2. I was like holy crap the stability and control is insane. It literally felt like auto level was on, but it wasn't.
@@Rusty-Metal oh i see, so it's more like software issues? I rather thought it's heli's frame feeling or maybe plastic blades are soft, etc. I was considering to buy this heli, as something between micros and T-Rex 500X. But seeing how people complain on problems with this model, seems it would turn out more expensive due to replacing stuff. Pity, i kinda like how this model look and blades size is nice. I as well was planning to put MSH Brain 2 onto it. Right now i have some XK K110S helis but i want to buy T-Rex 500X later. Do you think it would be acceptable to make such jump once i will be totally comfortable with K110S, or i definitely need something in between to make transition smooth? Will i need to le-learn again to fly big heli like 500X, or there will be no difficulty but rather enjoyment? Btw, i enjoy flying low RPM
@@cutefox8319 try a 380 protos, or omp m4 or the new trex tb40. Great size and cheap to crash. Kst 215mg micro servos, 1800mah 6s batts, cheap hobbywing v4 60 amp is all that's needed.
I'd be sitting up on that balcony flyin' from there!
I used to!
