That's it, i'm shelving my v911 for the time being. I just burned another board.

align 450 plus is like 450 sport v2, but just plastic rotor head n tail unit.. body is still carbon fiber.. paired with futaba 6J n reciever (but labelled as align). RM1399 to think again its quite a good buy...

im also going to shelf my v911... the body is sturdy, but the electronics are not.. -.-"

I think trex 450 plus for rm1399 is promotion price till end of june issit?

My v 911 tail motor tercabut... Lazy repair it, so I just put back in the box lol...

my tail motor cabut before.. now i think IC board sot already.. dowan waste money repair this already.. rather repair a 450

body really sturdy. Now i just need to find a way to buff up the electronics. The electronics are ok. just the location of the cylindrical crystal. When the thing arrives if it works, maybe i'm gonna connect it to wires and move it further up on the PCB.

u mean the "antenna"?

whut up with v911 anyway?I got so interested and now everyone is talking bout it being fried or something

Nope. The receiver crystal.

The crystal is very sensitive. Breaks when you crash the thing.

EDIT: i guess i won't be shelving it anytime soon. Who says whenever the seller says "IC board Rosak" its gonna cost Rm50?

I've found the cure to the red light of death! Just need a few electrical items, soldering skills, and the part only costs Rm2.

lol ok o.o
I tot it was a helicopter for beginners

Well the vibration kills it too. I've found the source of the vibration. Now i'm getting washers to fix it as well.

Crashing...Hmm...I fly a lot in my room & office, so bump into stuff a lot.

better get use to it. the further you progress, the more money it'll cost for every crash.

crashing a 100 size FP is causes no real dmg compared to crashing a bigger heli. the cost just multiplies if it's a CP.

Well people don't play a 450 size cp in the room or in thin their office no?

No offence but who spends 50 bucks repairing something that cost 100 bucks? Especially when the damaged components only cost a fraction of the price.

I fitted a different crystal on the board. One of the better ones and I'm trying to pad it with hot glue. So I'm crashing it intentionally a lot now to test the durability of it. Next step is a motor cooling solution and larger battery capacity.


The thing I like with the v911 is that its like a zombie. You crash it a million times, things break and you make improvements to the durability. A lot of fun to me reviving this little bugger.

It was me who said the IC board wil cost around RM50.. its quoted by my local store.. around RM40-50 include they pasang for u.

I changed my tail motor once, they didnt give me Align tail motor, but instead a WL or Wing toys tail motor replacement.. cost RM25. -..-"

I think i had that red light of death too.. it kept blinking and like stop recieving signals from time to time...

How did u manage to fix that? Thanks!

Added on June 10, 2012, 12:29 pmits really good for beginners, price wise and also the fly-ability.. moves quick and response is good, its durable in a way, but if u land at the wrong spot.. it will cost repairs.. because as u know the tail motor is quite vulnerable to crashes.. and heavy 'shock' during crash might also cause some connection at the PCB become loose.. so its very depending on the flyer and the seriousness of the crash.. otherwise the 911 is really a sweet flying machine indoor!

Me also. My hobby guy offered to fix my red light of death for Rm50. Change IC board.

Tail motor only costs US$3.99.

I'll post some photos.

As to how i fixed the IC board, i changed the crystal. Here are some photos.
