It Almost EXPLODED!! | Nimbus Nitro | First Flights & Impressions | MWHB Full Pitch Fest 2024

For the servo wire on the frame, just Dremel a relief in the carbon so its not against the servo wiring.

That’s what you call a free helicopter! Whew!

[@flyrightrc]

Wow Bro, Play the lotto, your a lucky guy.

[@BladeScraper]

Right?? 😅

[@toddkoffler5681]

The slimers are making a comeback! Damn you got lucky!

[@robwagner4615]

Very interesting as my Nimbus Nitro did the EXACT same thing with my blade grip coming off!!!! I used blue loctite in the building and will red from now on! 😳

[@BladeScraper]

Wow interesting. Seems like they fill the entire spindle with a gallon of oil before shipping lol. I used red and it still came out. Weird.

[@TheLufur]

@@BladeScraper mine came off too. Just checked before a flight if I have play in the head and yep it was pretty loose. Funniest thing is that in the manual it does not say to even use Locktite on the blade grip screws :)

[@cutefoxRC]

Wow crazy stuff! I wonder how you can even ensure that the thread locker worked. You just have to believe that or you can try to unscrew it slightly to see if it's firm?

[@RobertBurrow87]

Nice! Just got mine going too 😀I noticed the same thing with the tail servo. I think it's pretty cool that it's tucked away in there rather than sticking out like the electric Nimbus, but my KST BLS805X wire just barely makes it out of the frame. In fact it's pushing on the grommet a little bit. Should have had some big chamfers or notches for the wire right there maybe.

[@BladeScraper]

Yep a bit more thought could have gone into the mounting but I agree it looks nicer the way it is than on the E. Not the end of the world but worth noting :) Thanks for watching

[@dbirds21]

same servo here. I had to shave a 2mm of carbon from the frame servo cutout area tto install that servo....

[@BladeScraper]

@@dbirds21 I got it in but was a bit of a pain for sure. They could have been done better

[@H-B-vid]

WOW that was very lucky. That would have totaled your heli. I lost a blade on my Xcell 60 and it ripped the mast out of the frame. It was a total loss.

[@HuevosAzules]

Did you get rid of your electric after it was overheating?

[@BladeScraper]

No I got it mostly fixed with the smaller pinion. Did sell it a while later though

[@HuevosAzules]

@@BladeScraper oh that's good to hear. Thanks

[@HuevosAzules]

I bought a raptor 30 for super cheap. I love it. I love nitro. But it's just too damn expensive. I wish I could still get cool power 30 for 30 bucks unfortunately it's 50 bucks a gallon now

[@dbirds21]

Ive had alot of issues with that rpm sensor. its very prone for going out of wack. I think I got it locked in after 30 flights. It doesnt like vibration at all.

[@BladeScraper]

other than the wire issue (which is reportedly fixed according to my friend who bought one recently) and it falling out (my fault) they've worked well for me. Never had any problems with it other than those. But then again my other friend had serious issues with his so who knows lol.

[@spiccolli99]

i removed some material for the servo lead. the only dislike

[@dbirds21]

I stretched mine to the 610 blades and 20 tooth pinion and I like it better like that..... flys more like a 600 but still light and powerrrrrr

[@BladeScraper]

@@dbirds21 personally just feel like 600s just don't have the power to weight of 700. I've found 550-580 the sweet spot for a 55, at least for my flying style :)
