thunder tiger raptor 30 v2 self destruct

[paraflightschool]

it looked like the feathering shaft broke

[gabysande]

bad place for learning,no much space,will be besto to try in a park on grass,which is much softer,

[wcwickedclown]

@gabysande

i wasn't trying to fly

[TheVylence]

Thanks for the buttcrack....

[wcwickedclown]

@TheVylence

np i see it was calling you again sorry lol

[MrTbone127]

Oh damn  WTF??

[epic99jesus]

Were you just testing the motor? Really, I don't think its a good Idea to use ANY negative pitch on or near the ground. When you do , you get a hard landing, or the boom hits the ground, and then things like this happen.

cool heli though. Dampers are a nice tool.

[wcwickedclown]

@epic99jesus

lesson learned lol thanks

[puggster]

looked like it had slightly off tracking so something in the head was not working well,

if tracking isnt spot on you will get all sorts go wrong, noticably mushy cyclic response, twitching, general poor control, its not that bad so ether its pilot error or something in the head assembly isnt right, binding perhaps, these helis are usualy well built, most of the time its something the pilots has done or overlooked

[Raptor306090]

Its called chop the throttle. not rear cyclic. But hey, we all learn and on heli's learnin is expensive. Welcome to the Heli Family.

[nicolasforand]

NICE FLIGHT!

[kacering]

:-) welcome to club. That's helis.

[wcwickedclown]

@Xzexus

please you sound more excited then any one else lol jk

[pancho1576]

crack kills

[wcwickedclown]

@pancho1576

lol sry

[macdaddy1600]

thats not the video i was talking about lol

[250hcca]

agree! tracking is off too!

[250hcca]

agree!

[macdaddy1600]

THAT WAS THE PILOTS FAULT HE WENT BACK ON THE STICK THE TAIL HIT

[wcwickedclown]

@macdaddy1600

correct

the plastic head block had got reamed out by the shaft so it had a wobble i didn't detect so when i used negative thr the hea block forced the swash plate to tilt backwards

[1and12]

ass crack kills

[SteenWinther]

Sorry for your loss, mate. Looks like you gave full up elevator, maybe instead of closing the throttle?

I like the virtual swastika tail rotor at around 0:54, but the little red ball rolling away from the wreckage is a classic :-)

[redgiki]

You had too much negative pitch at speed for Normal Mode, and probably your dampers were either shot or too soft. You slammed the throttle stick down full negative and had a boom strike because -10 degrees of pitch had nowhere to go on the ground.

As far as I can see, it looks like pilot error, not a defect in the helicopter.

[wcwickedclown]

@redgiki

agreed ,but if you watch the other video you will see how the head wabbles.

[azezrtyuuiopqsdfghjk]

James look! There is a fly on the tailboom.

wait I have a briljant idea, I punsh the fly away with my main rotor.

[kalzx]

That sucks bro

[wcwickedclown]

@kalzx

thanks man , guess it was for the best cause the heli looks sick now

i think its the best looking raptor on youtube now.

its purple cnc

[kalzx]

@wcwickedclown post a vid of it now i want to see it!!!

[wcwickedclown]

@kalzx

check the video responces i just posted

[kalzx]

@wcwickedclown you talking about that custom raptor 50? that thing is sick

[wcwickedclown]

@kalzx

yep those two vids are the rebuilt bird will be taking her for a test flight in a week or 2

[kalzx]

@wcwickedclown make a video of the flight

[wcwickedclown]

@kalzx

sunday i hope.

[kalzx]

@wcwickedclown ok buddy i will be checking in

[wcwickedclown]

@kalzx

thanks man

[wcwickedclown]

@TheTruthHurtsYup and it cost me $900.00 a month.

and i bet where you live for that price id have a castle.

[wcwickedclown]

@TheTruthHurtsYup live in a mantion or live in a dump and have nice toys good friends and the best wife and kids a man can ask for im happy.

[viper221984]

Unlucky dude we all make mistakes,

You need the tail fin that goes down next tail drive

It helps to protect the tail blades hitting ground

[420choky]

i just bought a 30 are they that big????

[Statek63]

Both the rotor blade and the pants went too low ;-)

[wcwickedclown]

in the video responce you will see the problem

[Statek63]

and what was the problem with the low-slung pants ? ;-)

[wcwickedclown]

ammo and other combat weapons are in my pockets

[axenz1]

If you beginner flyer, do not put to much negative on Normal mode. This is what happen if to much negative using training hear, the heli tend to push down while the training gear not level.

Btw, your G string to high LOL

[wcwickedclown]

lol your funny , and your answer is incorrect, few the Video Responses

the problem was a bad rotorhead.

i replaced it with a metal one.

[wcwickedclown]

well when i first got it, i installed the head

and forgot to put the screw, i started the heli with the throttle in reverse, the heli started full thr i held the head until the i could shut it off , i didnt burn the cluth because the head never head the center screw, i thought whew that was close.

but what i didnt know was that the rotor head center had become wider at the bottom causeing the head to see saw

i didnt now , so when the blades got to the right picvot smack down happened

[drrm123]

I think main problem was main rotor blades being too loose look at about 8 seconds into video. what pitch range are you running and what swash do you have programmed into radio? since your just starting to fly i would not use more than -2 at bottom stick or even 0.

[ninetalesfox]

Wow you had far too much deflection on them main blades, double check the feathering shaft and blade dampeners.

[wcwickedclown]

ill replace them , just becase thank you.

[wcwickedclown]

but would that have caused the swash to move ? watch it in slow moe

[wcwickedclown]

you work correct watch the video responce to see what the problem was.

[Siege22]

May want to have one hand on the blades when starting - if you have a hot start and are not holding on blades wip around into starter/you. Also looks like around a min when spooling up blades were going up/down - loose feathering shaft bolts?

[wcwickedclown]

they measured 550mm do you think that pitch @ stick pos 2 was -2 and thr was 40% could that have cause it to suck to the ground and then pitch backward until the tail hit the ground ? and if the tail fin had been stronger it would not have flexed enough to bend and allow the tail blade to stricj the ground , next trip around im gonna try and make a test bench

i always here ppl say to use linear curbs.

[doublettw]

Main Blades is too long! standard is 550mm

yours look like 600mm

[capkin12]

bilader, çatalın gözüküyor.

[napa217]

ouch!!!

my thoughts are on your runyder thread.

[wcwickedclown]

hey nr sato welcome aboard, their is a swith to start it , my heli does not require glow stick.

and i agree looks like reverse pitch.

but stick position 2 was -2 and pos 3 was 70% i should have maybe used linaer curbs for 1 2 and 3.

amd no blades are 550mm

[MrSatoV]

looks like pitch was reversed and you pulled back on the stick pretty hard. But still... shouldn't have happened. What were you tightening at the beginning of the video? Those the right main blades, and not too long?
