RC Helicopter Tail Pitch Link Assembly Modification

RC Helicopter Tail Pitch Link Assembly Modification

It is sometimes difficult to assemble tail pitch links that end up smooth. There are many factors that lead to tight pitch links. Maybe the screw is screwed in too tightly. Maybe excess Loctite on the screw wicks onto the pitch link. Maybe the bushing/spacer of the pitch link is not long enough. Whatever the reason, using this method I am presenting using a locknut and no Loctite gave me a very smooth sliding tail mechanism.

Eachine E160 Review – Impressive Brushless Tail Hold & Performance

Eachine E160 Review - Impressive Brushless Tail Hold & Performance

Detailed Eachine E160 review including test flight with three different setups (tame, sport, 3D). The E160 is a great flying little collective pitch RC helicopter to suit all flying styles. It’s powerful enough for heart pounding 3D, or can be tamed right down for nice gentle scale type flying. Flybarless stabilization performance is impressive with a fluid and precise feel.

If you are torn between the XK K130 vs the Eachine E160, the E160 is not much more money, however, it’s a much better value as it improves on the shortcomings of the K130.
The single biggest performance improvement is in tail hold & authority thanks to a proper direct drive brushless tail rotor motor. It’s all but impossible to get the tail to blow out on the Eachine E160, even when trying. Brushless tail motors also last much longer than brushed coreless tail motors.

Other E160 improvements include a stronger and better cooled main brushless motor, longer flight times with slightly larger capacity LiPo & better power efficiency, metal geared swashplate servos & stronger landing struts. Some will find the E160’s canopy graphics easier to see which is always a welcome feature on any small micro collective pitch RC helicopter.

Out of the box, the Eachine E160 3D RC Helicopter is Futaba S-FHSS protocol ready, but provides receiver compatibility with Spektrum DSM, S-Bus, and PPM.

If you are looking for a reasonably priced, capable little collective pitch RC helicopter to fly & practice with in your yard, the E160 should definitely be on your short list of micro 3D collective pitch RC helicopters to check out.

Futaba RC Video Update:  S.bus (Serial Bus) RC Receiver & Servo System

http://www.futaba-rc.com Futaba Video Update. In this segment Steve Kaluf shows the features of the new S.bus System.

Stop cable clutter with the innovative S.Bus system. It uses digital serial data communication technology to transmit control signals between your receiver and servos. A single S.Bus cable can carry signals to as many channels as your transmitter can handle. You no longer have to worry about plugging in the wrong servo to the wrong channel, because each servo knows what channel it is dedicated to in advance.

S.Bus receivers are limited only by the number of channels
your transmitter will handle. Dont have S.Bus servos? No
problem. SBD-1 S.Bus Decoder Cables let you use existing analog and digital servos, too. The Futaba S.Bus system is nothing short of revolutionary and the revolutions just beginning.

• Eliminates clutter
• Easy programming with the SBC-1 Channel Setting Tool, S.Bus receivers or PCLink software
• No receiver channel limits (except by those on your transmitter)
• Plug in battery packs anywhere you wish
• Heavy-duty 20-gauge wire
• SBD-1 decoder cables (sold separately) let you use existing analog and digital servos
• Prevents mismatched servo-channel connections
• S.Bus system accessories make any installation simple
