Dick Turpin's SAB Goblin 380 KSE (18's)(offensive language)
Переглядів 6863 роки тому
Buzzard has just "Purchased" another heli from one of our members that sadly doesn't get the time to fly. Goblin 380 KSE that he carefully maidens... also starring Professor Williams and the Pingu. Big shout out to Dave Edwards for selling it to him.

6s v 12s.... is there any flight difference?
Переглядів 2933 роки тому
Buzzard is demonstrating that unless your a 3d pilot, apart from the power the flight characteristics are much the same.... so it comes down to price of batteries vs power to weight ratio.

    Love my 570 Drake! I recently was combating a belt slap in the boom & turns out it was hitting the tail push rod support midway in the boom. I dislike the Temps in which Scorpion motors run at, my Xnova 4025 1200kv runs much more cooler and efficient and does not heat up esc like Scorpion does? Same power output.

      @@TheFlyingHippo I know how you feel there. I've got burned on a knock-off 760X last year. I would love to get my hands on an 800 personally. I believe they are still available directly from Align. I loved the sketch though, you deserve some credit for the comedy and timing of the captions on it. It meshed up perfectly. I have a question for you also. When you test flew the Kraken, what kind of transmitter was that? I see a lot of them in videos, but I can not figure out what the heck it is. Any help would be appreciated as I have always used Spektrum, but I'd like to try something that feels different. Thanks again for that laughs.

    • @TheFlyingHippo
      @TheFlyingHippo 4 роки тому

      Mike Allen , the transmitter is a vbar radio. The heli and radio are actually the other guys in the video. If you change to this transmitter you have to change your flybarless controllers to vbar also as they talk directly to the transmitter. It can get expensive but they are very good. I think Dale paid just under £900 for the transmitter and then another £200 for the flybarless unit (Neo).
