Synergy N556 Build Series Part 4: The Final Assembly!
มุมมอง 1.8K6 ปีที่แล้ว
In this final step, we will take all the parts and do final assembly on the heli! I did do quite a bit off camera on this step. I didn't make you watch me mount the servos, set linkage lengths, or program FBL. There are plenty of videos out there on setting up linkage. I did take you through how I set the gov linkage on this bird, though. Thanks for following along!
Synergy N556 Build Series Part 3: The Rotor Heads!
มุมมอง 1.1K6 ปีที่แล้ว
In this part we will go through all of the remaining rotating asemblys. We will tear down the tail box, tail rotor, main rotor, and swash plate. I will walk you through the steps and make a few recommendations along the way. Thank you for following along! Getting close, only one more night left.
Synergy N556 Build Series Part 2: The Engine and Clutch
มุมมอง 1.7K6 ปีที่แล้ว
In this part we dive into the engine and clutch assembly as well as setting mesh on the main gear/auto gear. I got a little carried away and forgot to record the actual balancing of the fan/hub.

    What an awesome build Chris unfortunately I don’t have the talent you got I purchased a used gob one 700 with the scorpion motor but I am not familiar with anything. It did not come with a radio but the guy gave me a brand new spectrum 8E radioand I have no idea how to put all this together. Do you know anyone in Southwest Florida Fort Myers area that can finish this bill for me thank you Chris I tried to follow along with your videos, but electronics are not my greatest point.

    Please advise me on how to setup Ikon 2 nitro bailout and Governor on a Raw 700 OS105 spektrum sensor. I’ve only flew heli twice without Governor, bailout worked perfectly. Curves 60 75 90. Plenty of headspeed. Setup governor curves 49 74 85 it has Slow throttle SERVO movement on second two flight modes which I've enabled Governor. So now my bailout have slow recovery back to full speed. Had my first flight with my spektrum dx9 raw 700 OS105 nitro ikon Governor switched on. Couldn't get out of a hover due to serious throttle pulsing. Flicked back into bank/setup 1, Governor pulsing went away. Switched Governor off on all 3 banks. No pulsing and bailout works perfectly again. Also still have no idea how to setup bailout on ikon with Governor. 49 curve is VERY slow speed , sluggish. Tried the advanced Governor menu, selected bailout tab and the ramp up timing etc, Also changed Ikon 2 unit thinking it may have been a malfunction in the unit, no change. I run ikon on 6 of my 10 goblins (Other 4 are BEAST X) and 4 ikons for my other helis (others are Beast x). All electric. Never used ikon Governor due to using 6 tribunus's on my Goblins (others are castle) and mostly Align on my others. Never anything wrong with any esc Governors. I'm thinking I've done something wrong or missed something. I run Highend servos, esc's and motors on ALL Goblins, so it has to be software related on the 700 Nitro. I've bought over 9 ikon 2 recently off helidirect to change from beast x to ikon 2. Ikon is are great fbl, just can't figure out the Nitro Governor and bailout.

    Hello I been trying to reach out to a few people on TH-cam . No one Been able to give a hand ,hope you can help me a little bit, I have a synergy N5c I never owned a flybarless heli before ,but I have a old trex 600 nitro I did try to flying it but at take off the heli starting to spin and a cracked land no bad just the skid and tail broke This is the question the trex main rotor spin clock wise so is the synergy but the tail rotor on the trex spin on a different direction .... It really matters the way the rotor turn regarding the way the tail blade should turn ?. I mean the tail blades on the trex turn opposite of the nose ( if the nose looking the heli from the back goes left the blades goes right ) now on the synergy the blades was moving the same direction of the nose is that right or wrong?. I’m confused because the rotor spins on a different direction can you please help me I will appreciate any input thanks..

    • @cdsexton1
      @cdsexton1 4 ปีที่แล้ว

      Gec Service Yes the tail blades them self rotate a different direction. So you’ll have to make sure your compensation on the Gyro is correct. Works the exact same way as your T Rex but since the tail spins the opposite direction your compensation might need to be reversed. Double check it on the bench before you try to fly it.

    • @gecservice8768
      @gecservice8768 4 ปีที่แล้ว

      Ok thanks so much first to take the time to answer So for what I understand one tail blade turn clock wise ...one counter clock wise ... now what you mean regardless the rotation of the tail blades the giro should move the blades on the opposite direction that the nose of the heli moves?. Right or wrong? means if the nose of the heli looking the heli from the back The nose goes left the blades should move right is that correct? Also if I move the rudder stick to the left what way the slider should always. I’ve regardless the rotation ? Thank again hope you doing well with all this Health issues in the country

      The concept is harmonics. If you set them equally, the shaft will resonate at a frequency that will potentially develop high vibrations. Personally, I agree not to equally space.

I go to run it go's to full throttle the stick has no control. On the vstabi site it shows the setup for the castle setup. The only thing that I did not change is the external governor. When I clicked on it to change it came up that it could burn up the esc and the motor. I did not know what to do. Can you help me with that setting. Do I change it to the setting it said.

    First time to use an iKon2. My esc is a Talon 90. I understood to ignore all governor settings in the iKon, if using Talon governor. (Thats what I want) Here's what I'm dealing with. When calibrating the Talon, my endpoints are at 30% to start the procedure. At high stick, I get no tones after maxing out the endpoint. What am I missing? Also, I'm seeing blinking light on the iKon. This is a pre owned unit. If there a option to reset to factory default, I didn't see it. In closing, you produce fine videos. Thank you.

      VIBEFLIER I would start with a factory reset. It’s under the file menu at the top. I haven’t used the newest maestro build in a while, but I know it has a reset option. If the previous owner used the ikon gov, you aren’t going to get true linear throttle out to the talon without resetting the FireWire to defaults. Hope that helps.
