Status: offline 		My BCP is down,waiting for a warranteed 4 in 1, it had an intermittant 90 degree tail swing. Well, today my 1250ma LiPo showed up so I installed it. Then my friend (Greg) who also has a BCP which flies great, suggests that I put his 4 in 1 on my BCP and test fly mine with the new battery. A while ago I installed the unit on my BCP with the 10 tooth motor, began hovering in the living room, and it suddenly shot up. Luckily we have a high ceiling in there, and it came down before it hit, and received no damage, I unpluged the batt instantly. Since then, I have installed my 9 tooth motor, but havn't retested yet. I put the unit back on Greg's CP and it seems fine. I was also using his tx for my test since it was his reciever. When testing mine, the antenna was wrapped around the skids, and on his it is in a tube attached to the skid. Being so close in I don't think it was the antenna, but im thinking that the 10 tooth gear was causing excessive current drain against the speed control and made it act up. Am I correct in my thinking ? His has a 9 tooth pinion, and a 1500ma LiPo. Dennis, Red Bluff, Calif.
