Default RE: E-FLIGHT BLADE CP

[quote][/another bad habit I think I am getting, correct me if I am wrong, but I am getting a habit of controlling collective along with the tail rotor speed change. that is when I put the nose right, more power to tail ,heli will fall, a little correction with more collective. nose to the. left less power to the tail. correction with less collective. I am thinking this learning curve will be of no effect with a belt driven tail. or will lipos even out the current draw a little? I can see myself with a gas heli turning to the right and smashing it into the ground. quote]

Whether the tail is driven directly from main or by its own motor, changes in collective will increase or decrease torque causing yaw. Your automatic input just replacing what the mix on a computer radio would have to add. Sounds like that 'computer' in your head is working well!

Maybe its just me, but my bcp flew well with the cf blades and the 10t/nimh combo. Lipo came friday but wind gusts have been crazy so I haven't been able to try that out yet.
