NNOTE: If you have problem with the ESC set up, please follows these instruction

The customer needs to calibrate their throttle endpoints as well as do an RPM u201cstandardizationu201d procedure.
The steps for this are as follows:

Set the throttle end points in the radio to 100/100
Set the throttle curve to a flat 0-100 linear line
Remove the main rotor and tail rotor blades (for safety)
Move the throttle stick to the full throttle position and plug the battery into the ESC
Wait for 2 confirmation beeps, lower the throttle stick to the minimum/low throttle position
Wait for more confirmation beeps, unplug the battery.
Calibration complete

For RPM standardization; this must be done after calibrating the endpoints previously.


Set the throttle curve to a flat 50% output.
With the main and tail blades installed on the model, plug the battery in as normal
Ensure that you are in the throttle curve/flight mode that has the 50% flat line
Click out of throttle hold and put the throttle stick right in the middle of its travel, let the RPM come up to speed
Let the model run at this 50% output without touching the throttle stick, do this for about 10-15 seconds.
Click into throttle hold and unplug the battery
Change the flat throttle curve to anything other than 50% output, values of 60-80% are normal for 3D flight.
Adjust the flat curve for the desired RPM.

Here is a video for the entire calibration:u00a0https://www.facebook.com/TheBKOfficial/videos/1372472412861851

Loved the build, love SAB, fit and finish was fantastic and all parts both helicopter parts and electronic fit and finish were also fantastic. Went together with no issues. The power this Fireball for exceeds my ability as a helicopter pilot. Love this thing. I just dial it down a bit for my style of flying

Fun Little Heli

As expected amassing build quality from SAB. Easy build and great instructions. It can do way more than I can do with my skill level. I would have gave it 5 stars but it is a little heavy.

SAB Fireball kit

Another good kit from SAB. Good instructions and high quality parts. Recommend to hot-glue the tail section to the frame for reliability, otherwise it seems to be a weak link.

SAB ROCKS

SAB heli division has done a great job in developing there helicopter line. SAB quality
fit & finish is an industry leader
Choose any one of them and you'll be happy you did. the fireball havoc may be small in size but huge in features. It flys flawlessly!
You will soon have a fleet of SAB helis in your hanger ready to tear up the sky and more importantly put on a smile.

Solid Heli for Serious Fliers

I’ll admit this Heli is a bit beyond my piloting abilities. The competition motor spins this baby up at high head speeds which makes the pitch response a little “touchy”. It’s an amazing model- Solid build quality, precise, great looking, great design, easy to build and repair. Its also a great size for flying around the yard. Just work your way up to it. Like, warm up with a little slower model and if you’re feeling like you need something more aggressive, bring this one out!! Very happy with it and a big fan of Goblin.

Fast and easy build. But

Fast and easy build. But need work on tail BOOM design.

Nice build. Tail boom connection to frame is a bad design. First flight my tail BOOM had warn so bad that it became unstable and I had to set it down. There was so much play in tail it was Unfliable. I bought new tail BOOM and hot glued it to frame. Now the heli is solid. Customer service was no help after sending them video of issues.
