@Folks with main motor problems

What are your flying habits, do you go from one battery straight to another or are you letting the heli and motors to cool down a bit ?

@Aaron

The 30 Jan I do my third order.
At the moment is ready to process (ok ok spring festival etc etc). There was in my order many batteries in stock within 4-7 days. Today I discover that banggood doesen't sell it anymore
And now ? There is no way to buy new batteries for this heli ?

Please,
like other people said before (to me also), send PM to Aaron, your personal order status does not belong in this discussion.

It seems to be the brass pinion gear that has the wear, not the main gear. A harder main gear might eat the pinion even quicker if the mess isn't perfect.

Well, "theoretically" if the main gear is indeed producing some lift, then it's also eating up some battery power to do so. Can't get something for nuttin'.

The only thing the Delrin gear might provide is truer running. I'll ask a 3rd time ... does the Delrin gear run truer than the stock gear? Anyone?

My delrin gear runs fairfly true. My stock one didn't run true at all, but after awhile it trued-up. Stock for stock, the delrin is more true, after both have worn in, they're probably equal, at least in my case (but my delrin has low minutes on it). Your mileage may vary.

My precious corter case with room for another one



As Golum would say;"Corter, Corter, Corter"
sorry been watching LOTR with my daughter and thinking about my precious one.

Does anyone know which "foam" material would be best to cut out to make precise bedding for heli an TX ?

One that doesn't break down and shed tiny particles all over and contaminate the "Corter".

ROFLMAO, please itzy bitzy particles do not contaminate my Precious Corter

You guys are cracking me up today.

Use closed-cell foam, it's a little harder to work with but you won't get any funky strays and it'll hold up well over time.

I use closed-cell foam to shadow my toolbox and it has held up well over the years of use.

On all my Heli, the plastic main gear is what gets ragged over time. The pinion gear have always been bullet proof. I'll keep an eye on the v911's brass pinion to see if it's an exception.

I think it's also your interest how and if you can buy new batteries at the v911 -_-'

yes when you want to buy where there isn't in stock or where the battery cost is 20% of the heli cost..
I think it was convenient also for you buy it for 3 dollar...but you prefer do the superb. Thank you anyway

Did you cut it with exacto or do you have a better idea ?
