Default Re: Thinking about getting into Heli's or have questions, Let me know!

Watch out for the Fromeco regulators that are made for giant scale.
They WILL fail in a heli.
Fromeco makes a couple of special regulators for heli use.
There was tons of testing done and the only conclusion is, the Giant scale regulators do not last in a heli, they burn up. None of the engineers at Fromeco were able to figure out exactly why.
The dedicated heli regulators have huge heat sinks on them.

I have had good luck with both the Duralite and MAH batteries and regulators in a heli.
