Default Aerohawk Tail Motor

I just burnt up my first tai motor. I was thinking of doing a duel tail motor or ducted fan motor conversion.

I need some input from people with experiance on these mods.

I just got my aerohawk and the previous owner had a direct drive motor. It works great.

i got me a new GWS direct drive tail motor for my aerohawk and when i lift it up in the air i can feel
that the motor doesn't have enough power to hold the heli body from turnning around...!

yes i did i turned it all the way clockwise! but now i realised that the main motor is weak as well!
so all the motor system gets low voltage i think....

Yes most defintaly it can. Do a thread search for PHA-01 the ESC and Gyro for the mini DRagonfly you will see all of the issues people have with the gyro that has burnt out.

ESC Is the electronic speed control. Its like the throttle for the heli. There intergrated on the same board for the mini dragonfly. You can however split them up if it happens to burn out you can buy a separate ESC and a separate Gyro. But the stock ones from the factory are intergrated. Providing its the PHA-01 version I am not familiar with anyone elses Gyro set ups

Thank's,it's nice to know. but tell me if you can show me where it sit on the board, because maybe i can fix it like i'm going to do with the gyro-chip!
i purchased only the gyro-chip for replacing it.
