      Thank you for watching! I like my builds to be super clean and wires to be neat and tucked away where they cannot be seen! The black skids definitely make it look good!

      The 470 is a fantastic model! Great choice as a second model. If you get one I would recommend getting a iKon 2 FBL unit for it. That is the best FBL in my option. Super easy to setup and simple! You get rescue as well as auto level.

      @@thedonnyman1 is it possible? Yes, what I do it? No. The 636 is a terrible FPO unit, it is not great whatsoever serious tipover issues as well as no real tuning and not the best flight performance. The 470 combo comes with a microbeast. Personally I would go iKon 2 and have the best FBL in my opinion.

    I would like to ask what is grip size (inner) for 470LP? Would it fit 5mm thickness blades or only around 4.6mm?

      I would have to Measure that, I’m not sure off the top of my head but any 380mm Blade that I have tried works.

      @@westhobbiesrc8051 would be nice if you can measure that :) the reason why i ask is because i was thinking if i could 'stretch' it later and put 420mm blades later when i will want to modify it. But i noticed most of 420mm blades come with 10mm thickness, though i was able to find some 5mm thickness blade.

    I just bought this helicopter with the super combo electronics , I am having a hard time figuring the microbeast plus especially finding a cheap receiver/ satellite for it. Any good receiver/satellite you would recommend?

    • @westhobbiesrc8051
      @westhobbiesrc8051  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      What radio are you using? Spektrum? If so any DSMX satellite will work. Horizon hobby is where I buy mine. About $35, you plug it right into the side of the microbeast.
