Easter Sunday Flights:)

Post by Graham Lawrie »

Got some FPV in Glencoe:) and got all my helis flown 600/550/450:) The only casualty was a set of rront umbrella gears on the 450 when the tail dug in on a normal landing. Apart from that awesome day. No video of helis, but boy how i have missed my 550 shear power:)

I have a two position switch, auto level and beeper are on position 1. Acro is position 2 with no beeper. I am just getting used to Acro as it is not set up right. If i could assign a switch i could change the beeper. One of the draw backs of the DX6i:(

Nice Graham. I just got back from a nice evening flying on the beach in zero wind.
Flew the Glider, the Quad, and the Warp 360 for the first time since before Christmas :)
60mph winds back tomorrow :(

Your should be able to assign the beeper too the gear switch, or is there another function on the gear switch?
