Ok I finally got her finished with only one minor problem.... I smoked the phoenixtech esc. Hey thats ok, within the past few months I also smoked to non CC 120 HV's
The maiden went smoothly just hovered her around here and there a little bit getting the feel of the new BLACKWIDOW. I still need to dial her in a bit more before I can really give you a heads up. I will see how well the video comes out on programming it. It really is simple just follow the menu's

If it weren't for the mosquitoes trying to carry us off I think that bird may have seen some upside down time We had a good day! Even had fun getting the finishing touches done to the 500E mechanics... And yes 3 sets of blades are on order for the 5 bladed lawn mower! Eric the 550 looked awesome bro... Can't wait till the next time we get to fly I want to see how you like the 550 in fast flight.

Yah was a fun day yesterday especially trying to figure out how to get the pitch right on that monster.... I do dread tracking all those blades, thats going to suck Yah did you see that one mosquito pick up and carry off the VW beetle ... Brought it with me to work so depending on if I get out of here at a decent hour Im going to stop by VP and try to get her a little more dialed in .... Post the pics you took of that Rotor head....

Put 3 more packs through her this evening after work trying to dial the blackwido in so that she feels locked.... I think I almost have her.... On a side note scraped my brand new radix blades on my 600 when she tried to tip over No real damage done double checked her and put her in the air for 2 packs

Hey Barry First off Welcome to the Team. I programmed it using the software and the USB cable. On the 2 Pots on the top you will probably want to dial them back from the 12 oclock position to the 11 oclock position. Update the firmware to the latest revision. Since I use an Aurora 9 radio system I set mine to PWM. So if your using sbus or DSm7 I probably wont be of much help. The software menu's are pretty straight forward. Pay special attention to leveling the swash in step one. You may have to go back reset your radio let it re initialize and tweek step one again. I also did that on step 4 and step 5. It seems by doing the radio reset gig it dials it in tighter. The BW does not like vibrations and it will force you to balance everything. I got the tail gains adjusted to finally to my liking yesterday and was comfortable enough with it to do some light 3D.. I will tell you this. That 550 will flip on itself and you can think piro and its already done 2. I have added more expo than I normally do because it is very sensitive when paired up with the stock servo's which are faster than hell. I will Pm you my number and I do have a BW setup video part one on my Youtube channel I think.. I have been under the weather the last month and a half so I have not been around much lately.... But yesterday I was actually feeling good enough to fly ...

Thanks very much Ghost. Got your number. Got 8 flights on the 450 pro with the BW gyro. Getting gain set on ele and ali. Getting comfy with the gyro. Only thing I seen was in ff and add colective it would pitch nose up. Went into settings and bumper up setting. Going to have to try it and see how it does. I am liking this gyro. Very stable!!!
