Status: offline 		I have a Blade CP i was flyring it perfect and then i tried landing it and somehow ended up crashing it hard by accident, it then flew good for a couple days and now it only turns red at about a little past 75% throttle and stays red at full throttle i tried adjusting the pitch and other things and still does some one have any ideas what it could be to fix.

Status: offline 		The LED going red at 3/4 throttle is normal... The thing I would check is if you have flat blades, make sure the flat side is down. Does the heli seem to blow air up, or down? The other thing you are going to want to check is if the pitch is working properly. You should have about a +12 pitch at full throttle. Check this by unhooking both your main and tail motor noting the polarity. Then check the pitch at 0 throttle (should be -1 degrees) and then check the pitch at full throttle (should be +12 degrees). If you look at the blade from the end a slope like \ is positive and like / is negative.
