fly for two years and still hovering tail in??? you should be doing 3d after two years.

@thedoorsbiggestfan I said I was still flying the same heli two years later... I didn't say I was still flying it tail in. Check out the latest on my channel.

That looks like fun. It sure is smooth. How much different was the DX 6 over the stock TX? I here a good TX makes a lot of difference. Also they are a lot more sensitive unless you tone it down some.

Looks like a good kit to get after salvaging the remains of a Belt-CP. I still have my original version Belt-CP that was purchased about 3 yrs. ago. Still brand new and sitting in storage. Hope to fly it this summer.

how did you fit the motor on the exi? my exi 450 se v2 wont fit its too short

I took the old pinion off, using a pinion puller. The I got an 11T from HeliDirect. Go to Motor Pinions > 300 Class > Rhino Ultra Hardened Steel Pinion 11T 2.3mm. That pinion is longer than the stock one - it will work fine.

Looking good only thing I would replace ASAP is that Esky ESC those things are well known to burn&smoke causing crash if in mid flight.

I used Esky stuff on my EXI build and one was the Esky 25A ESC it caught fire one day luckily was on spin up and not mid flight.

Can get a 30A Exceed ESC for $17

LOL!!!! That exact same thing happened to me about 2 months after I made this video. I got it on video too! Check out my other vids!

I mean, those $4.00 servos are incredibly good on cyclic.

If you are using the $39.00, you should try to change it to aluminum grips, trust me, you will see a huge difference, I was really disspointed, almost drop it on the trash can. Ive tried 11 and 12 tooth, but for me 13 tooth worked a lot better. Go see my videos. Those $5.00 are really good.

I actually have an aluminum head and tail sitting on my desk to put on. I was going to wait until I crashed and broke the head, but one of my friends told me to, "do yourself a favor and put the metal head on." So, I'm anxious to see how it flies!

I know a lot of guys use $40 cyclic servos, but at $4/ea, I'm happy with the tower pros. I haven't had a problem with them and they're plenty fast.

[CJVideoProductions]

Are you using the Esky 3800kv motor?

[thenextgeek]

whats your complete setup?

servos, esc? I have a BeltCPv2, and an EXI450 from a long time ago, havent flown the EXI yet.

Also have the DX6i mix.

My scroll wheel broke (inside), so be careful not to push to hard on that thing. :)

Nice Vid, and good flyin, keep it up.

My setup is in the sidebar. Hopefully I'll get some more flying videos up soon, but with winter approaching, I don't know.
