I just got a 4#3B in the mail from a guy on RR and was told its brand new never even opened the box. So today I started flying the heli and noticed the main moter doesnt start spinning until im at about 1/4 stick and it kicks the main blades pretty good,, is this normal and also the links are on the innermost hole and one of the servo arms is cut off ..Do they do that at Walkera? anyone ?? have one yet they can check for me. Thanks

Just checked my 4#3B. The push rods are in the inner hole but the serco arms are uncut. My birds tail rotor starts first and then the main but it spins up smoothly. I hate to say it but you've been lied to, in my opinion.

Try not. Do or do not. There is no try

If you have the one with the metal bling and the 2.4 gig radio, just fly it. It flys great for a micro. The pushrods are fine. I have an early version that was a bear to fly untill I moved the pushrods to the inner holes. It could have come fom the factory with clipped servo arms but I dought it.

just noticed the thread and would like to ad that i have a walkera 22e and when ordering servos i have recieved new servo arms that look like they've been clipped. could be that it was previously opened but i've had experience with this same thing from the factory.

fly it like you stole it

Hi Mastic,
The 2 Walkera 4#3B's I have both came with one servo arm cut to avoid hitting the canopy it looks like. The other servo arm is uncut. So I think what you have is normal from the factory. Just fly and enjoy.

i agree. it took me a long time to make my walkera fly. i was new and didn't understand things. i gave up on it and bought a couple trex 450's, and then a raptor 50v2. i learned a lot and felt sorry for my little walkera so i ordered new servos and gave her the once over and i fly it every day now. i cussed walkera for a long time until i got her flying. the electronics are kinda cheap but if you take care of them and setup properly you can learn a lot. it's the hardest one i have to hover so i use it to keep my skills primed. don't get to frustrated , remember every crash is a learning experience and this is a hobby. have fun.

fly it like you stole it
