Hey guys,
Just wanted to share that I can finally fly my BCP without the jitters and with total control in most all situations. Its taken a lot of parts in the process but yesterday I felt like I could do anything I wanted to manuever the BCP around, like an extension of the body kinda thing. If any of you out there are wanting to give up just fix it and try again. I think what got me to want to get better at flying the most was the cost of the stupid broken parts. That and the fact that I know there's people out there flying upside down sideways and all over the place and I should at least be able to land the thing without breaking. I think I'm hooked.


I'll quit ranting, its just a good feeling.

Congrats Tbizz,

I've been down the same road, almost threw in the heli about 2 months or so ago, and like you, it clicked. Now having a ball, but still once in a great while, I'll still smack a blade. I haven't had any major crashes since, only blades, but rarely.

Keep reading the forum, you'll learn so much from all the guys it unreal. I know I did.

Nice going Tbizz.. It only gets better. Nothing like that feeling when you get a 2 or 3 minute hover in. you have to set the heli down cause youre smiling so hard lol I actually hovered through 2 1320 battery packs tonight with no damage in my basement. I eouldve had to replace a set of blades probably but since i have on plasti blades I was lucky. Keep on hovering and no matter how frustrated you get just buy a couple spare parts and try again.

NO I did not just crash!! Im making it flop around on the ground like that on purpose. Its a new stunt.
