Heres mine...

Blade CP...

Stock except:

Alum. Swash
DD Tail motor and GWS Mount/fin
Heatsink on main motor
Swapped crystal so i can use my 7chp
carbon fiber blades
I use the gws tail bom now, its a little longer, but it actually gives you a little more tail response (further from cg = more leverage)

Status: offline 		You can't use a separate gyro with the 4-in-1. Yup the CP2 and BCP 4-in-1's are one and the same.

It actually has two parts/boards in it. One is the 6 channel receiver, where your servos plug in. The other board is the 3-in-1, which has the escs/gyro/mixer. I'm not using the second board. I have 2 CC10 brushless escs with a himax 2015-4100kv main motor and feigao 4100kv tail motor. I kept on burning motors, so I decided to go separates.

If you wanna use a GY240/GY401 with your GWS DD motor then you can buy a brushed speed control. I've seen people using the GWS brushed controller or the CC Pixie 7. Either one of these would work fine.

Status: offline 		Yeah....so just just crashed mine pretty good, and about took my head off while i was at it...

You can hear my tail motor spaz out in the middle of the pirrouette..then i tried to save it and being it back to me...when it was on the ground i tested it before unplugging the battery, the tail motor was working, and changing speed with the throttle, but not responding to input...reset the 4-in-1, same problem...pushed down on the crystal and it moved...tried again and it was fine...

Lesson learned...check the crystal every now and then

actually not too much damage, the frame broke where it always does (left rear landing gear mount) and the flybar was bent, on of the landing gear struts broke..so not too much damage...

2nd lesson learned...when you start to lose it, just get it down where it is...i tried to bring it back not really knowing what was wrong...

edit: forgot the link...duh!
