Back to the hobby, 516 stretched to 556
« on: May 12, 2020, 04:19:08 PM »
Hey guys, I am back to the  hobby after 5 years away.
I decided to get a new kit so I can remember again how to setup helis as I pretty much forgot everything.
Flying is not bad (Sim) but everything else is another story especially with all the new stuff out there.

I got myself a :

VBAR control touch,

Will get a Neo vbar, (I have older minis but I want to learn about telemetry and all)

I have on the way a new 516 kit with stretch parts

Scorpion 4020-1100 and ordered also a 16t pinion

557 VTX blades (That's what I found at the time)

96mm Rail tail blades and ordered a 18t tail pinion

MKS HV9767 Cyclics
MKS HBL990 tail

castle 120 ESC

Is this a good combination ? Tried asking around and that's what I gather.

Anything I should be aware of while building ?

I really do not remember much so I have to relearn everything, connections,setting up ESC, vbar etc, but that's
 the fun part.

Any suggestions ?

Thanks.
