You are so good! Thanks for sharing. I’m going to go through all of my Heli’s. You have inspired me to make sure that completely dialed in. I don’t have anyone around me that fly’s so I’ve had to figure it out on my own. You are the man!!
That is great to hear and why I do it. This hobby is so fun and can take you far in life. I hope all my footage helps you on your path to success. Thanks for the kind words. Coe Show
You’re just like me sir,i don’t know anyone that flys Heli’s,thank goodness for coeshow,he’s the man he does a great job with all the time and work he puts into his videos.
100% So inspiring and his videos are awesome. I've been in RC on and off since I was a kid but with cars and trucks. Had a wild hair 2 years ago and bought a Heli, now I have 5 Heli's and 4 planes. Coe Show has bailed me out so many times...
Things have come a long way. I remember the old days of Raptor and Hirobo with a million little bags and a crap load of screws and the old wooden blades that didn't come preb-balanced.
CoeShow619 - need your advice: which of the 2 Blade Heli's would you suggest I favour buying, and stick to keeping longterm: The Blade 230s smart, or the Blade 360 Fusion (3s) ? appreciate your comments when possible. Thanking you. Daza
I just picked up a brand new blade 550 X. This helicopter almost looks identical to the one that came out 10 years ago? Could that be a possibility? This is my first larger helicopter in many many years and I got a great deal on it. The quality seems great, but it looks identical I was just curious.
I am using a 6250. Should i set the travel on the tail to the same number for right and left? If i set the tail offset to the right, the travel number for right is reduced.
Excellent video sir,lm building the blade 480 right now,I also picked up another new 480 kit,I couldn’t pass it up for the price,I got mainly for parts,would you happen to know if any parts of the 480 will fit on the this 550? Thank you.
Yes, all of them fit except for the difference in length of the tail boom and tail belt. The blades are 550-560mm and the tail blades are 95mm. It’s the same 480 with a longer boom, longer blades, and a new canopy and landing gear. So now you have parts for days!
I have a question regarding the gear mesh on the main gear and the pinion. After building according to the instructions and watching the HH build videos, when I mounted the motor and set the gap, I noticed that on one side it’s tight and the opposite side is loose! I can’t figure out how to correct this with only the motor adjustment. The only thing I can think of to do is loosen all the screws on both sides of the frame and see if that changes anything and retighten everything and see if it changes or stays the same. The gap on the loose side is a good bit more than normal. Thanks for any advice. 🤞🏻
Yeah. Sort of weird there. Ok man. Take the motor and mount out of the frame. Look at bottom of motor mount. The holes are slotted there. Line up your pinion in the middle of the mount. Center it in the motor mount hole basically. Push the pinion on the the bottom of the shaft , so it’s lined up with the main gear. Set it back in the frame and tighten the 4 outer screws.
I’m so glad your doing this bird!

Did u use a external bec?
No, the Avian 120 and 130 internal BEC is all you need.
i want to use the skids on my 480, what besides the skids themselves would i need?
The 480 skid mounts. These new skids are much more stable on the ground and higher in the grass. No ice skates for me.
so there are new mounts along with the new skids? @@CoeShow619
