This is another of my Belt-CP Helicopters. This one is stock frame, brushless, 5-bladed main rotor, 4-bladed Tail rotor, Carbon Boom, 2800mAh 25C 11.1v lipo, Fiberglass MD-530 (slightly pointed nose) fuselage. ESky 704B HH gyro (crap but works), Align carbon fiber tail blades (x4), align pro 325 woodie main blades (crap also.... so out of CG and balence out of the package).

There is no cyclic gyros on this. I have a GU-365 3-axis gyro but am not impressed with it so Im not using it on this one.

I will soon be upgrading the tail gyro to a GY-401 I have laying around and also using align carbon fiber blades (the white ones) when i can afford to buy them. lol.

I have only hovered this so I am not sure how Forward flight will work out but hope to soon find out.

Thanks for watching and more updates and videos coming soon once i get a little more confortable with the heli.

  • oh .. also before you go outside try hovering with a fan bolwing on the bird. helps to get the feel of out boors

    cheers !

  • I will give that a shot! my ESC died on me and I just havent had the time to disassemble and replace it yet.

  • looks great. when you raised the head speed the bird became more stable. Quite impressive No Cyclic Gyros !

  • Its funny because in a hover it is just as stable as my flybared 2-bladed head.

  • Very nice, what needs to be done to fit the 5 blade rotorhead onto the Belt?Also how much does it cost?

  • As far as fitting it to the Belt-CP, the only thing I had to do was bore out the hole for the bolt that holds the hub to the shaft. You could use a smaller dia. bolt but that might cause some play. Otherwise direct bolt on. Oh, and you have to swap the balls out for the smaller ones (I used blade 400 balls) on the outer swash... or you could change to the TRex ball ends.

see all

  • Excellent!

  • Hi JuicedCBR600F2, great heli !! Who is the penta-blade manufacturer ? Same for the four-blade on tail. Thanks !

  • Yes, that is a Vision in the background... Sold it about 3 weeks ago though. I also currently have an 07 Hammer S. I like the Vegas JP, but i wasnt a fan of the bicycle tire on the front.

    I currently have 2 Nexus 30's, A Caliber 30, Belt-CP in the MD fuse, and 2 other Belt-CPs, 2 HBK2s, Walkera 4G3 and just got a tricked out APlus 400 (SJM400). Just a tip, use good electronics on the belt and do the direct to swash mod using the mini-titan servo mounts! makes ALL THE DIFFERENCE IN THE WORLD!

  • Do the DTS conversion, it should fix it, did mine.

    If you don't want to, you need to reposition your servo arms that control the swash because they are traveling at different rates.

  • I have the same problem.

  • hello,sorry for my english

    i have a question , i have the same configuration(hugues 500 belt cp with 5 blades) as you but i can't put my belt cp in hover because for example when i push my joystick in forward position , the belt cp go in left foward position....my remote contro is a mx 12....i need your help please

  • I got the Penta-head off ebay for $109. There are 2 on ebay, this one, and the lightning heli one. DO NOT BUY the lighning heli. I have many lightning heli heads and they are SOOOOO sloppy! This one is nice and tight with no play and smooth free movement.
