Video: MTM 400F meets 3D Pro Hummer

Big Zoom · May 26, 2005, 01:01 PM

This motor seems to have just as much power as the MTM 400DF that is so popular now days. Here is a video:

Setup:
New setup:
MTM 400F (2250kv) w/ 20T
My custom homemade fully symmetrical 255mm woodies
HS 56s all around
CC 25 esc
Electron 6 rx
Kokam 3s 740 (20C)
T-Rex Canopy
AUW: 423g

Video clip of Heli:

Pound for pound it may be the most versatile motor to have. I have one in my Twin Jet as well running a 7x3.5" prop Direct Drive. I'm just excited to be having so much fun now.

Here is my Jet video clip w/ the 400F as well:

Bottom line, I like my 3D Pro Heli now, and I can never get enough time to fly my jet.

Does your heli get to see any action aside from full-power climbouts

It definately has lots of power, climbs better than my x400 for sure.

Actually, I had been having problems with the tail system having too much slop leading to vibration and so much tail wag tha the heli was not flyable. I stiffened up the tail with washers. The video clip you just saw was me testing out the new mod. I just happened to notice that the tail was now holding fine, and the heli had a little bit of power as well. So, I decided to capture the footage to share with others.

Long story short, I have not fully tested out this new motor. Even the climbouts that you saw was not even full pitch. I am yet to workout all of the setup kinks. I will try to do a little bit of flips and rolls in the next vid. I do know one thing, the little heli has more than my skills can handle. My specialty lies in building modifications for 3D flight, Unfortunately, my flight skills lag behind my creativity.

lol...I like my helicopter to have some punch too, if I can get my t-rex to climbout like that I'd be happy

What are your flight times with this motor and your 740's?

Looks way fast!

WOW!! How many amps. are you pulling, Zoom? I haven't touched my 400DF yet, 20T looks and sounds really nice.

Thanks,
Antonio
