Hi Everyone  :)

I recently purchased a MT from Model art and I am planning to build it now .

The motor , ESC and Gyro are the stock ones .

On the Cylics i am using
3 * Metal gear turnigy servos 9g
1 * Ace R/C servo , came with the kit (  surprisingly  {:)} )
 
I will be using a Turnigy 2200mAh 11.1v battery .

Will keep you people updated  :)

I wanted to know from everyone , What should be the belt tension for training because the manual says that not more than 5mm free play but few people told me it should be as loose as possible but it shouldn't skip a tooth . Any comments ?

See a few posts starting from this one :

http://www.rcindia.org/helis/hk-450-mt-build-thread/msg14480/#msg14480

According to the pics and insturctions on that post , my belt tension is set correct then . Though Gaurav bhaiya told me that if the two belts touch it shouldn't matter ???

Hey everyone ,
I have an issue , after i throttle above 40% my whole heli's vibrating ??? any suggestions on what to do ?

It has periodical vibrations after about every 1.5 - 2 seconds  after crossing 40% throttle . P

That is normal. As I said yesterday DO NOT attempt to hover without getting assistance.

Ok . I thought it had something to do with blade tracking ???

Hey everyone , Please assist me with setting my Pitch and Throtle curves ???

This was discussed in a lot of detail in this thread.

Let us know what particular clarification you need after going through the posts above.

Gaurav Bhaiya suggested a few things i should do like -
- Loosen the main rotor blades
- Loosen tail rotor blades
He also suggested as the CCPM/Gyro is controlling the cylics , My transmitter (6EXHP) should be turned to Airplane mode , and the Pitch and Throttle curves should be de-activated . Any idea how i could turn it off on my TX ? ???

Just set the type to "1-5" in the swash (SWSH) menu.  That should be the default, so you would be OK already.

I am of to Bangalore , so i will be inactive till 19th , I will get back on the MT as soon as im back :)
Thanks

Hey everyone ,
I have been hovering from the past week and have managed to hover it for 4 minutes without any break  ;D ;D ;D
Today i thought why not hover on my terrace and see how it goes in a smaller and much safer place and i was able to hover it around for quite a while .... Until ... The neighbours servants son saw the heli flying from the next houses terrace and started screaming to his dad . His dad just completely ignored him and he threw a stone at my heli , his aim was really perfect . It hit the main blades , and they broke .  >:( >:( >:( >:(  :'( :'( :'(

Fortunately only the main blades were damaged and nothing else . Now i need replacements !!!  :'( :'( :'(
Does any one know from where i can get them ? And wheather align blades would also work ?  ??? ???
Thank you all ,
Sahevaan

:headscratch:  :headscratch:  :headscratch: :o  :o  :o  Is the gentleman out of his mind, to do something senseless like that ?  ???

Any 325mm (or similar sized) blades should work, including the Align ones.

Man o Man o Man...... This dad needs a spanking.... Take a stone and tie it to you know what and push him down his terrace.... :giggle:

I think he is mental.

Well now i need to buy new blades . Hope the repair doesn't cost a lot :\

What a moron!!

True :(
Anyways wont the align blades be different in thickness and the holes for mounting ???

Some blades do require the "rubber spacers". Please wait till someone like RotorZone/Rajesh comments, as they have much more experience with the MT.

I have read on another site , it worked well with the MT .

Sad incident really. PLus congratulations on your hover.
Get the woodies from Rotor Chennai or the TT dealer in Bangalore.
TT Woodies are expensive, but then you shouldnt plan on crashing much, now that you are able to hover .

Ask that "dad" to buy new blades and some spares for you. And tell him that his son broke an expensive set of blades and lots of parts were broken.

If he is not willing to get them, then you throw a stone at his cars windscreen or house window, which ever glass is costlier.

All the best for your AIM   :thumbsup:

Preaching violence... and eye for an eye ???

:giggle:

Only the blades are broken , not the feathering shaft or main shaft . It shows no vibrations !

Anwar bhai, I said if the "dad" does not agree to pay. ;). And I did not tell him to ask for a "imaginary" Gy 520/quark that his son broke by throwing stone. I said just a few spare parts, like main gear, shaft that will come in handy  :giggle:

There might be vibrations if the FS is bent or the Damper rubbers are gone and hence if the blade wont track after you replace them.

But i cannot ask the servant to pay as it would cost him a whole months salary

Doh! didnt know he was a servent at the house. I thought he was the Owner.  :banghead:

If you read the post again , you will see i wrote the servant threw it .

I am getting 2 sets of wooden blades today .

Got them . Flew the heli .
