You may have a weak main motor or a bad tail motor (draws power, it won't fly that way either).

Jay,

Excellent video, you've got the touch. Loved the music too, no RAP CRAP!

Oh, almost forgot, I watched one of your others today also, the one titled "New Cap design", at the field. That too, is a great video and you looked calm and cool the whole time, like "No Worries Mate".

(Don't forget, about a half dozen chopped green olives with pimentos. Try in on your next turkey sandwich or cheeseburger, yum yum)

God Bless,

Dave / Choppersrule

Autoart4you,

You've come to the right place, there are many experts here with the Blade CP, we'll get ya going.

You mentioned that your CP is used and that it was in a crash.. Other things to check at no cost, would be the blade tracking and blade pitch. Your manual should explain that in detail. If you get hung up on any of the procedures let us know.

You may consider getting a motor with a 10 tooth pinion, that will give the helicopter more head speed. I've used 10 and 11 tooth pinioned motors in the past, with great results.

Thanks for the compliments guys

Choppers, that was an interesting ending to the "New Cap Design" video and one I'll never do again! That was a close call and I'm glad those Deer were smart enough to wait for traffic to clear

Autoart4u, a picture can say a thousand words. do you have any way to upload a close up picture of your head from different view points, maybe something is installed wrong. I've done it when rebuilding

Check out this thread and see if your head matches up, good stuff on re-building a blade CP

God Bless Ya,

Most prominate reason for no lift is a bad main or tail motor. The tail motor although seems fine may have an internal short sucking power away from the main motor. Only one way to check...change motors. Had my butt kicked too many times in this area...that's why I know.
