RE: Anny news on the Walkera 4F200 cp
Thanks for the info erdnuckel2..........Well I have been doing that. Example: On some sites they say that the 4F200 is more for the experienced pilot being 3D capable. On other sites they say that the 4F200 is so easy to fly it can hover with no stick input, it’s the next step from the coax heli's. I was hoping for the Walkera pilots to share their personal experiences more than the Walkera sponsored reviews.

Anny news on the Walkera 4F200 cp
I am looking for a good easy to fly out doors helicopter. I was thinking of buying a Lama3 with the WK-2801PRO TX. When I noticed the Walkera 4F200 CP RTF: 3-Bladed Heli. With the Lama3 at $504 including postage to Australia, and the 4F200 with the WK-2801PRO TX is $450 incl Postage to Australia. The 4F200 cp sounds like a better choice for me. I just want to know does any body have one of these helis, are they easy to fly as the Walkera review says it is.

You have heaps of thrust with that prop set up. She looks good on the water nice and smooth.[:D]

RE: what u think about my new 6 blade prop ( got a 5 blade ready to test)
Dude I just did that just last weekend. I put two three bladed props on my Saito .62. I have bench tested it and all went well. The props were already balanced so I just bolted them on to engine with the prop nut. I kept the prop blades equal distance apart to help in balancing the whole thing. I plan to do a thrust test this weekend. I want to compare the difference between a three bladed prop and a six bladed prop. I am looking for grunt not speed.

RE: Designing My First Airboat Need Advice and Pointers
Looks solid and the sizes are good. You could make the deck a bit thinner. I make my hulls just thick enough so they can take a standard servo. Thats around 60mm ( 2 1/2") thick.

RE: Designing My First Airboat Need Advice and Pointers
That hull looks reasonable and should be easy to build. The .40 engine would be a little bit heavy for that size hull. A .25 engine would be a better match for that hull. As for the engine stand build it to suit your engine. You can put the fuel tank under the engine stand. A .40 would swing a 10 inch prop so I would make the engine stand about 6" off the deck. What material are you going to use? Ply or balsa. What type of rudder are you going to use , a water or an air rudder?

RE: super tigre 45
It is usually cheaper to buy a new engine. Because if you Diagnose the engine problem wrong you could end up spending more money to fix the engine than what it cost to buy a new engine. A new engine is good for a few years with no problems !

RE: Walkera 5#10
If you can send it back and get it checked out then do this first. If not buy a new one because I have had a few Rxs for the Walkera 5#10 that fail first time out of the box. Talk to you your dealer first,Then start buying parts. Good luck.

RE: Walkera 5#10
Sorry to hear that you are having problems. I have had that problem more than once with my Walkera's. I have found with Walkera you sometimes get a good one and some times you get a bad one. It is Walkera the 4-1 RXs do burn out just like that? That is my own experience. But stay with it might come good.
