Thanks, WOW 235grams, that's great going especially with landing gear. I also had a look at the X650 that looks like a nice frame to, whats the weight of it?
When are they ready for purchase?
I noticed in the video that there was some oscillations, lowering the -Integral in the PID would sort this out.

So I would also like to know if it's possible to use the mkTool so we can change the PID.

Hi, Simon
I have no idea about these question because I am not the manufacturer of X-650.

I just discovered this item at xmhobbies. I notice that there is some concern about the inefficiency of the props. In swapping out for 2-blade props, will the lift capability be increased?

Yes, it will increase the lift if you choice good performance 2-blade props. However, the advantages of GWS 3-blade props are inexpensive and tought.
I use GWS 9050 instead of 8040.

Hey,just got home to find my props showed up,got them on and what a difference,they should include these with the kit instead of the 3-blade.
Got some short video,will upload ASAP.

This is nothing fancy,just some hovering around,

Xaircraft X500-D (3 min 17 sec)

tychoc · Oct 07, 2009, 10:49 PM

That looks great! Those new props seem to work well.

It appears to fly very smoothly Gary. How does it do in yaw spins? Did you have to adjust the yaw much as you flew?
Cheers,
Jim

G-unit · Oct 07, 2009, 10:52 PM

They work very well,what is funny the adjustment's that i did with the 3-blade props now i need to take them out to make it even better.
