Tried some other flybars. Check the MJX F47 baby brother thread.

I sent 2 E-mail, no response. I don't expect too much of the F48

Sturdy but boring. I just tool around in circles and such. Solo Pro Bravo SX "guts" with a modified WL V911 canopy flies much better and is also pretty sturdy. Does banked turns and is quick with a "chopped" flybar.

Mjx f47

Ok so I just got my f47 yesterday and I took it on a few flights. It was easy to trim but it has a weird hovering orientation which leans to the right, the tail hold and rotation is horrible. It drifts like when you apply rudder I flew it a few times outside and no problems but once I took it into the gym and crashed it a couple times I broke the tail rotor. I installed the spare and from a modest fall of about 3-4 feet I broke the other tail rotor . I hot glued sparingly and got it to fly again but now my tail motor is dead. 50 bucks for something that didnt even last 4 full battery flights. Sent email to seller to see if he will do anything for me. Let you know how it goes. I think the v911 is the better buy.

I'm building a cheap bricks plane. It's made with 1 $ foamboard and the electronics parts of a small heli in my case my junk F47. Recycle

If a flybarred helicopter is what you guys want, I'd still go with the V911. It's just comparatively so much better than the F47. The F47 is an average, run-of-the-mill helicopter that really doesn't reflect the doings of a large company like MJX. A shame really! (Though it is a decent indoor helicopter I guess)
