| Yes, it is a GWS, and the jury is still out on it. I made the error when I bought this heli of getting cheap electronics, so I started out with the GWS receiver, 4 analog "no-name" brand servos and a Telebee gyro. I have now replaced the servos and the gyro, and the heli is flying 100% better. I still have the GWS, and I'll give it a month or so and see how it goes. So far, no real twitchiness, but I also haven't really tested the range yet. It is probably the next thing to go.
The lesson I learned on this heli is that getting marginal quality electronics is only a good idea in a cheap, marginal heli, but I am finding that this helicopter is really well designed and has great capabilities and needs decent electronics.
I'll let you know if the GWS gives out on me in the next few days! If I had the choice today, however, I'd go with a futaba 146 receiver.
I'll post some more pics. I'd also like to see some more set-ups from others in this forum! |
