Quick question,

What effect would it have if you put a longer flybar on your heli? (longer than stock, mine is a trex 450)

More or less stable? More power or control? etc.

Thank you!

More leverage, though go too far and you risk flexing. Most of them come with a flybar length thats a good compromise between stiffness, control authority, and stability.

Yes,stick with factory or factory upgrades or just like BarracudaHockey said or go on your own risk.

Increasing the length of the flybar speeds it up.

align has 2 different lengths of flybar for the 450...190mm and 220mm....that's all i'm gonna say....you have to do your own homework...try both and find out the difference

I have flown both the 190 and the 220 and the 220 makes my 450 a much more stable machine. Cyclic controls seem to be alittle quicker also.

Good luck
