Feda Gyro problems
Hi All,
I am a Heli Newbie with a Feda Dragonfly - I fly outdoors (doing too much damage indoors!) anyway recently I am getting slight tail rotation (clockwise) at lower throttle levels, if I trim it out I then get the opposite rotation at higher throttle. Is it a gyro problem or is the tail motor on its way out!
Also would a Heading lock gyro help and how would it fit this board (see pic)?
Cheers
Steve

RE: Feda Gyro problems
It might be the motor,I've seen a couple posts where motors also fried the speed control when they shorted out after much wear.They are cheap,I'd replace both of them.
I also made little heat sinks from aluminum tape,it sticks well,and really helps the temperatures.I take a strip 1/4 inch wide,1 1/5 inch long and fold it back and forth on its self to make short fins,then just stick it on,works great
