e-E-Sky Honey Bee- Lama- Belt CP- E-Smart > I have lots of Esky Lama 2 Questions?

Hey Folks,

I am having a blast with this thing, especially since the winds are just not cooperating for outdoor play in so-called sunny Cali. I have a few questions I hope someone can answer.

1) The transmitter has a charge jack. Does anyone know if it is active? I have several manufacturer charge plugs and none fit so I could put my volt meter to it and check polarity. If it is active I will hit radio shack for the proper size plug.

2) I have the slight counterclockwise turn mentioned but I am not sure where the pot is located to adjust this on the 4-in-1 box. I see one thing I could take a screw driver to but don't want to mess with it in case it is not the right thing.

3) Where do most folks get their parts?

4) I want to get a second battery. I am happy with the stock one but if there is a better/bigger capacity that will work, that would be awesome. I also would like to charge using my Duratrax ICE. Anyone know where I could get some connecters so I can make plug adapter so I can use my balancer? No, I don't feel like disassembling the pack and doing it myself.

5) Without crashing, how long are the components lasting, ie, the 4-in-1, servos, motors? I ask so I can stock pile these items.

Okay, off to burn more LIPO's. Thanks,

Jim K.

1. Should be easy to check with a voltmeter

2. the only pot on the 4in1 is the centering pot, make very small changes with it.. I mean VERY small changes, do this while the battery is unpluged. then power up the chopper to test changes.

if you do not power off and on the changes do not get set.


3. various internet stores for parts. just search.

4 Extra Lipos http://www.commonsenserc.com/produc...&products_id=77

you get TWO lipos for $20

5. without crashing the chopper should last a very long time, I have been flying mine every day a couple of times a day for over two months.

just rememeber to chop the throttle when you crash or you will smoke the 4in1 mosfet.

Lots of info here
