Title: 250 Race Quad
Post by: Kirk Bigalow on April 27, 2015, 22:34:28 PM

Built this about a month ago.  Its one of the clone Blackouts €140 off Ebay. It came with 1806 KV2300.  But changed them for the DYS BE1806 2300KV.  
Flying it is just a lot of O S**t moments.  Anyone else build one of these??

Hi Captain,
              Would it not fly better with that big lipo hanging out the bottom?

Live long and prosper.

John.

Strangely enough, I was wondering the same. Why on the 250, the weight is up, not down.
You need to protect the battery, but does that not make it work harder to stay stable?  :?:
Or CofG is not that important unlike an plane or helicopter?

I tried the battery on the bottom of the quad.  But is made no difference at all.  A recent development  is the quad wants to drift forward after 10 seconds of hovering and no matter how much adjustment i do on the transmitter it still wants to fly forward.  I have another CC3D board I'm going to try and see if its the flight controller.

Strange alright.
Maybe the Gyro sensor not straight is you see what I mean.
I don't know much I have to say, I have a KK2, but on top of my head, you can adjust the "neutrals"
