You too Chuck. I just finished moments ago going through the complete set up again on the DX 9 in all three modes, Stable and Stunt #1 & #2 and she flies like a dream. To windy to take try so light 3D but she is ready.

Here is a video for you that found helpful from this guy, he’s good with the 230S V2. He has a host of video for these Heli’s.

How to replace the boom? I know, sounds easy, but there is trick here that is unlike all of my TREXs

I’m not sure if I saw it on one of his many videos but I ventilated the tail motor bracket. When you look at it you’ll see two indentations and which you don’t see is that the air is being sucked in from the outside where the blade is but has very little room to escape that’s causing him most opinions the tail motor to get warm. The article I read was that guys are looking at their copper windings on the tail motor and they’re not shiny copper there now brown because they’re burning off the insulation. So I originally was going to do is the guy said he was going to do which was to take a Dremel and router out those two in dented areas, that didn’t work well for me. Weighing it out in my mind I just drilled three holes which took the predominant amount of plastic out and ventilated the motor and I did it on both indented areas on that plastic motor boom mount. In order to accomplish this I did have the motor off the boom so it’s not a foul it with any plastic or slip with the drill. Just food for thought.

Take care and fly. John
