It was a bit windy and cool but I figured out the ESC programming and could not wait to try it out!
So went to the field and spun her up and verified the Governor was operating correctly and the tail was close to being trimmed out. Well she spun up nice and smooth, 8 clicks of right trim on tail (rate mode) and it was good to go.
Hovered good at 1400, lots of punch. Kicked her up to 1880, had lots more punch, almost scary the noise those blades made when I cranked the collective in, and it was like a rocket heading to the moon
I played around for about 8 minutes (my normal heli flight) and it looks like I used close to 75% of my battery capacity, so that is good.
Can't wait to take it out on a nice day and see what the Bergen can do!
This could be a very fun bird
