The brid flies bloody well.
That is why it has such a strong market position.
It is a little chopper that flies really well - simple as that!
It may not have round main gears - but that does nothing to how it flies. I've gone and bought round gears due to all the complaints about the stock ones and i have since gone back to stock (after a major crash), why - it flies the same and costs less. Sure it looks a bit off when you see it wobble as it rotates but the heli does not shake and my on-board logger recorded no improvement whatsoever with the round gears.
My head (like Willy's) also has 0.5 mm more material on one side than on the other - SO WHAT? The heli is rock solid, no wobble, no vibration, flies like a dream. That 0.5 mm is certainly not enough reason for me to get all puffed up about the "quality" especially since it appears to have absolutely zero impact on how it flies - I acknowlege that i may be lucky, maybe the 0.5 mm is offset by some other part that is also not perfect but that just goes to show - fit the parts and fly the thing THAT is what it was designed to do, not to be a model for perfectly produced small CNC parts. |
