Anybody tried to convert their lama and get rid of wires?
Well,I did.I've followed instruction on HeliHoby and guess what it flies.
One question for all you electric gurus.I tried using 2s lipo pack,but it didn't have enough juice to get it more then couple of inches of the ground.I had some 3s packs,so I used one and it worked pretty good.
I was using 401 gyro,because that was the only one I have.Do you thing switching to smaller regular gyro will get me back to 2s pack,since 401 is not exactly power efficient.
Then again,looking at the power suply ,I see it's 9V 6.5 A.2S pack is only 7.2v,so maybe I do need to use 3s pack?
Any suggestions are welcome.
BTW: I'll have some pics in couple of days.

XRB

Go to a 3S1P pack, and pull the cases off the gyro and rx. Every gram counts.

Isn't 3s1p little too heavy for XRB?

The wireless XRB will be here soon. I'm not sure if there is going to be a conversion kit to convert the wired one to the wireless one. You may want to check with Altech to see if such a conversion will be available.

Too late.My lama's done and flies.With 3s pack it's really sensitive to CG.I wonder if I can use little longer blades,to help to lift the load.
Anybody know which blades are longer and will fit Lama?
