Lee's 250 quad flights

Thanks guys,
@ Stambo
The oscillation was not enough dampning, because I had just swapped over to the 5x4 Bullnose props.
Loved the pop they had, but do need different tuning from the HQ 5x4 Plastic props I had on there, as they are so much stiffer.

Cool videos Lee:) I see what you mean about the wobble:( To me it looked like you dropped height quickly, which looks like propwash, so Stambo may have a good point about the blades?

After weeks of wind, we have a three day slot of calm, before it starts again.
Heres the first flight.
Had to change back to the HQ 5x4s as I broke one of my bullnose due to video signal loss

nice flight Lee, did the 5045's get rid of the wobble?

Thanks Dan,
The wobble was with the 5045s.
Just got back from flying tonight. The 5040s are running nicely.
Upped the roll D gain a touch, could do with a couple more clicks to get the bump out when doing fast rolls.
I'm running around at 100% most of the time, which is leaving me with no headroom for yaw.
Quad starts torquing at full chaff

Just ordered a new frame. Gonna be 4S for sure. Would like 6S if I could find the motors

What frame have you ordered? 4s is the way forward for mini quads, but its not for beginners unless there bonkers like me lol.

Its the Pro version of the RCX250 frame I have now.
There is a link on my RCX250 thread.
I would love to try 6S, as I could use my Warp360 packs

Fantastic! Plus 1 on the music as well.. I tell ya, I'm sooo jealous of the places u guys across the pond have to fly... Beautiful!

looks a lot better mate, if your running near 100% throttle all the time you need more cells or bigger props or both

Cool flying Lee, that's a fast quad...

Lee · Post by **Lee** » Fri Jun 05, 2015 10:38 pm

Thanks Tony. Its only 3S like yours.
But i'm going to be building a 4S in the next few weeks

THAT was one hell of a take off, lmao! Awesome flying, Lee! That was fun!!!

Got the new RCX 250 Pro finished today.
Just had a quick test flight on 3S, with stock settings.
Pretty dull controls, but, I'll get to tuning it tomorrow.
