Hi,
I had been using BeastX for sometime and switched to Vbar some seven months ago
when I thought it was time to move on to better controller. I have been having tail not
very locked with Vbar on a number of helis; including two Trex 550 (V2 and DFC),
one KDS 550 and two Logo 500. I put the tail gain to max (120) and as well as tried
adjusting other parameters (P and I, etc), yet the tails were never really locked.
I tried to improve the overall mechanical gain by adjusting the ball location on the
servo arm and even changed to better tail servo, the tail lock was slightly improved
but still not very locked. This has been bothering me for a while until I switched to
SK540 last weekend.
I tried the SK540 on my Trex 550 (V2), with absolutely no mechanical and servo change,
the tail was very locked with all default settings (except tail gain). My tail gain was set
to 85% eventually.
My friends have been telling me SK540 flies better than Vbar, I didn’t believe until I tried
it myself.
I would like to add that SK540 setup is a little more complex and can be confusing as
compared to Vbar. So, for first time users, please make sure you read the instructions
on the setup wizards slowly and carefully.
The above is my honest comments and personal experience although I may not be impartial.
Cheers!
