Hi all
Here is my Tandem TRex v2.0
It is currently a 2 bladed flybarless per head design. I wanted to go 3 bladed per head but a bit of lazy to build the 2nd head (already have one 3 bladed head).
The frontal rotor head is lower than rear.
Oh.. I may use the frontal elevator servo for controlling the frontal rotor head so it can tilt forward (like in real Chinook) and also use for taxing (if I install wheel instead of landing skids)
Due to GY401 DO NOT GO ALONE WELL with V-Tail mixer, it only have 2 gyros. One for elevator and one for Rudder/Yaw.
I still thinking whether should I go and buy another GWS PG-03 for the aileron or not.
Just finish testing hovering in living room before taking this picture.
EDIT: During hover testing.. It feels like more stable than first version due to articulated hinges. Cyclic (aileron and elevator) quite sensitive but rudder kind of sluggish but I think the rudder is expected... even in real Chinook.
