I wondered if you could tell me if the the new batch of Glogo’s are going to have all the issues with the frame holes and what not fixed, I had one of the first batch Glogos and as much as I loved it, the way it went together wasn’t great. I’m really wanting another, but need to know if all these issues will be sorted. I saw the update Kyle did when he introduced the logo 200.

Mikado USA shows 05057 and I think this came in the kit.

Amain Hobbies shows 4273 which is a bit different. Is this an updated part or just the wrong part number for a Glogo?]]> Goodlett GLOGO Questions Mon, 15 Feb 2021 09:32:06 +0100 https://www.vstabi.info/forum/read.php?60,182568,182568#msg-182568 https://www.vstabi.info/forum/read.php?60,182568,182568#msg-182568 that still not available like the clutch.

I am building the Glogo and I faced problem,

It is so hard to slide the Main gear+one way bearing into the 3rd bearing block as instructions, I have to push the main gear, with strong force, using ETO tool, to force the one way bearing to the 3rd block, so there is next problem, installing the main gear to the frame is impossible, I have to remove all screws around the tail to expand the frame to push the maingear+oneway+3rd bearing block(now is one piece).

Is this diameter of bearing is too small or the tolerance of the one way bearing? With this error, to remove/replace one way + main gear, I have to remove a lot of screw then remove the 3rd bearing block(include one way+ bearing attach). The one way bearing is sharing part with Logo 690SX (#4876), I do not have problem with one way bearing of Logo 690SX, it slides easily to counter bearing support plate.

Another thing need to improve,
The canopy mount bolt is too short, in the manual, it said insert 3x washer, why not produce the canopy mount increase 2.5mm so no need washer? It look very ugly when stack 3 washer like this.(picture 3,4)

Also why not move the canopy mount bolt upper position, where there is lock nut, which just design to hold the anti rotation servo swash?(picture #5), I also shorted the thread rod, it is too long, not necessary and ugly.

You should be using an engine to main rotor gear ratio

i have my glogo since it came out from the first batch
and i still cant fly it, first it was the starter adapter than a tail problem that i still have.

i was pissed on that heli so didn't touch him for few months
the tail system work flawless i noticed when i turn the starter shaft with my hand its very hard to turn both ways so i gave it to a friend with the oneway bearing and he took care of it now it fits right and free turn in my hand.

but again the tail kick but much less than before

my conclusion that the engine sit a little bit higher in the air frame.

if i ask mikado for a new air frame do you think they will help?

after all its very expensive kit and i dont want to modify my air frame. im not sure i can do it good enough and they already did it with the first batch, i dont want to drill it any more.]]> shlomits GLOGO Questions Thu, 09 Jan 2020 11:17:54 +0100 https://www.vstabi.info/forum/read.php?60,177716,177716#msg-177716 https://www.vstabi.info/forum/read.php?60,177716,177716#msg-177716 Please can i have some help for Glow Engine?

I've come to a roadblock building my second Glogo. My first one had an OS105 and the main gear/pinion gear was smooth as butter; however, using a YS91 Tareq on my second build, not so much. To get the right mesh it will require shims. Does Mikado sell engine shims for the GLOGO? If so, where in the USA can I buy them?

I just switched from Futaba to VBar Touch/Neo, after 43 years with Futaba stuff.
I could not get the Neo to read the OS55HZ-R BPS-1 backplate sensor at all.
Per MikadoUSA Tech Guru, Ronald Thomas, I had purchased a Spektrum BPS and installed it. This setup produced checksum error logs without working also.
I switched black and red in the Spektrum sensor. The system then did not even indicate that a sensor was present, similar to the Futaba/OS BPS-1.

As the Glogo has been on the market now for just under 6 months now, I have been hearing about all the suggestions, issues, and stories from consumers.

I have started to detect a recurring issue with people not understanding how dampening works and what they need to do if they are an "aggressive" pilot.

Dampeners in the head range from soft to hard and each have benefits/ downfalls. If you have softer dampeners, the model will fly smoother, and won't have bobbles at low rpm. If you have hard dampeners the model will feel more rigid/ locked in yet less smooth, and you can get bobbles at lower RPMs.

All Mikado helicopters come with a medium stiffness of damper which works well generally at low rpm, as well as high rpm and is a good balance that will work for the majority of pilots on the market. I tested the model with these medium dampers and flew it very hard still and didn't have any issue with boom striking, and it also performed very well at low RPM. However!!! If you are a VERY aggressive pilot who does a lot of quick cyclic inputs then the medium dampeners might not be stiff enough for you!!! If you are an aggressive pilot then you MUST upgrade to the "Hard Damper" set which Mikado sells. Link Below

https://shop.mikadousa.com/04617-O-ring-damper-set-hard-LOGO-600-SX_p_613.html

The closest thing I can relate this to is suspension systems in a car. When you buy a car, it comes with a softer suspension so that the ride is nice and smooth for the average driver. But if you want to take this car around the track and race it then of course one of the first things you are going to need to change is the suspension! It is the same with dampeners for model helicopters.

Hope this helps, and wish all of you lots of happy flying!

Kyle]]> dahlkyle GLOGO Questions Sun, 21 Jul 2019 02:28:15 +0200 https://www.vstabi.info/forum/read.php?60,175319,175319#msg-175319 https://www.vstabi.info/forum/read.php?60,175319,175319#msg-175319
Over the 4th of July holiday, I back ordered a GLOGO. Today I reached out to the vendor because I haven't heard back from them. The vendor related they have no idea when they will receive their next shipment of GLOGO kits. Has the second production run started? I'm trying to determine when the second run is going to be shipped to the USA? Does anyone have a tentative date?

Not what you would expect from a new machine of this pedigree that’s for sure.

My question is will mikado be replacing these frames for people with early production kits. I have not started to build it yet, and if i’m honest, i’m loathed to with it like this.

The other issue is with the engine mount pushed all the way down the slots as the note suggests, the lower plate mounting holes are lower than the u/c mounting holes. Putting a little twist in the plate is not great either.

I noticed on this forum someone else has asked the question about the frames being replaced, sadly it has not been answered, so i’m sorry for asking the same question again...
