I bought this CX2 yesterday, and I've already been through two sets of replacement blades. Seems that even the slightest contact with anything at all causes the blade to break.

Yeah, I realize I wouldnt break blades if I didnt crash, but then again, I'm new at RC helicopters.

I bought an aluminum lower blade hub already because I knew I'd be replacing one plastic one after another, too.

Any ideas on more durable blades?

also, even in the slightest of breezes, the helicopter cannot fly against the wind, no matter HOW light it is...I keep the control planted "forward" and it still just drifts back.

any tips/hints would be MUCH welcome, as I can see this is going to be a hobby I can really get into if I can get this figured out <br type="_moz" />
