I just got done assembleing the beam and flew it great heli by the way only concern is i dont get the pop that i did with my trex with the 430xl motor. I have the scorpion -8 motor ,13t pinion, kong power 2200mah 3s bats, throttle curve is 100% flat, stock white blades do i need to get better dampeners or better blades or should i put a 14t pinion on the scorpion motor?

I noticed my kit had really bad dampeners. Get some stiffer ones. That should help.

Will the trueblood V1 dampeners work on this heli?

Not sure, but I assume that if it works for a Trex 450, it should work for the Beam.

The -8 is a 3595Kv motor right? And you're running a 13t pinion, what headspeed are you turning, you gotta be cranking like 3200 or so right? Dang... I'd think a 14t would just induce bogging, but I have no experience w/ this motor yet. So I'd think some stiffer blades would do wonders for you. Swap out for your t-rex blades for the pops & grins and see what happens. Easiest thing to try to start w/ too.

Yah, change blades, the stock white one work pretty well for a mild sport flier but if you want more pop change them out to a stiffer blade
