but can the 9g be used on esky lama v3?
ok, here's my confusion. on my lama v3 manual, it said the gain is to control the tail wobbling while the prop is to control the rudder.
on rcheli forum i read that it say otherwise, which is which?
i dont know why, when i adjust the gain, my rudder when horribly wrong.
Added on April 15, 2010, 5:09 pmok this is my finding (just played with prop and gain) it seems that when i fully tigtened my prop, it will stay fix without ruddering right or left.. is that normal?

gain is for the gyro sensitivity .. more gain = more sensitive but it will catch the vibrations of your heli oso and then will not function properly .. therefore u have to adjust it until just right (the tail dont wag fast left right non stop)
proportion is the speed between the 2 motors .. so u turn and mix until 2 motors are about the same speed .. ie. tail dont slowly drift to 1 side or the other
if u fully tighten your blades then u might have lesser tracking problems .. if u tighten it and the tail stays better then your tracking could be out when the blades are not so tight .. but if u do that and the blades are not balanced (stretched out) properly then u will have vibs coming back and will cause the gyro problems

I see.
at times i have fully loosened (CCW) my prop but stillmy heli is ruddering to the right, does that mean blade problem?
also, i loosened my blade from the holder, really loosened that it can freely move back and forth, is that the right way?

let your heli lie sidways .. the blades should stay in its place when sideways but will move down if u touch/knock it softly with your finger thats roughly how tight it should be

(dont need fancy Tx that the funtion beyond my capatability, just wanted basic yet good for progression) Added on April 16, 2010, 10:37 amanother Q. whats the difference between this two battery? http://www.rcdreamz.com.my/webshaper/store...kProductItem=67and http://www.rcdreamz.com.my/webshaper/store...roductItem=1240what do you think about this Futaba Tx?

Is it a must to get Futaba Tx? Will you consider other Tx like Walkera? hehehe, if yes I think you can consider RTF package already ....

I think, Futaba 6EX 2.4G should be fine for normal purpose...
Added on April 16, 2010, 11:25 amA used DX7 should be around RM800 too... if not mistaken

yeap futaba, good investment might as well invest one shot for a good brand.
anyway i found the problem of my 'glitch' on my right servo! its the transmitter, i think electronic in my transmitter cockup? as when i was calibrating my tx for RFG4 i saw the rudder moved by itself even when i didnt touch it...
guess i have to get a new Tx, anywhere i can get Tx for my Esky Lama v3?

there is someone selling FULL SET dx7 for rm850 ... look here http://malaysia-rc.com/index.php?topic=13833.0if u really wanna consider LONG TERM INVESTMENT ... then buy the BEST U CAN AFFORD to SPARE i would not go for the 6EX ... minimum go for 7C if u want FUTABA DX7 or DSX7 if u want SPEKTRUM or JR Added on April 16, 2010, 12:35 pmwhen u see a batt readin 18-25C .. all it means it it can give continuous 18A and burst of 25A ... thats all so depending on what u need and require or WANT .. hehehehe when we fly our planes and put in new motor or new prop or something that will affect power settings .. we plug in a WATT meter to find out how much power is being sucked and whether the set up is efficient or not thats how we know what to use and buy ...

i have read ppl doing that .. but have to perform some minor surgery on your ESKY 4n1 receiver laa google is your fren .. hahahahaa
mr daddoo got comment about walkera radio ... i have oso read alot of used it with their bigger than 4G6 helis with good results so maybe u can kill 2 birds with 1 stone .. get a 4G6 that comes with the 2801PRO radio ... then buy an extra receiver to use with your LAMA

thats hard stuff man. do you think shop can do that? also the receiver i need to buy seperately right?
with my throttle trimming at the lowest point, i can only lift the play in 3/4. is that normal? if my throttle trimming at the highest, im able to lift at 2/4.
Added on April 16, 2010, 1:47 pmerm let say i bought Futaba 6EX 2.4ghz, do i need to get the receiver seperately? thats another rm300++ rite?

if u buy new FULL SET of radio equipment ... it will come with a receiver the 6ex comes with a r617fs 7 channel receiver so u will not to buy another receiver if u are not going to buy another heli
i am not sure about how high the throttle needs to be for the LAMA but if it still lifts off then should be ok ... normally weak batts or dying motors are the culprits for weak FP lift performance
