Default RE: Struggling with single rotor basics V2

But then the wind & rain stopped! So I grabbed the new FBL & put two packs through it w/ the new pinion. I also tweaked the expo a bit & then I found the cr@ppy plastic canopy was touching the main gear. I managed to deform it enough to finish flying but I'll need to look for a permanent solution.

I was pretty nervous so I kept the flights very simple!

I also analized my piros & realized that they mostly go up & down too & it depends on the direction. So I assumed my scarred left thumb was having troubles. I thought about it awhile & then remembered the sticks on the Tx are adjustable. So I shortened the left one as short as it would go & today was the first time I tried. Jury is out on results!
