Howdy Fellas,
I just picked up the Complete CNC head for the Blade (http://www.helihobby.com/html/blade_helicopter.html) and installed it today, and man it is sweet, the collective is soooo smooth. My Blade came with the 3 BB grips and they worked pretty good but there is no comparison as to how smooth this is, The touch downs are so much smoother and so much less jumpiness in altitude change. It is probaly not as fast as the Bell Hiller head out there but is definitely smooth as silk. I was able to dial my blade in tonight almost to the point where I can take my hands of the remote in a hover for quick second. The whole assembly really brings down the amount of corrective maneuvers you have to do on these things to hold it steady in a hover, makes it fly more like a Raptor .30 but a lot more agile if need be. The only issue I have had is the threading for one of the set screws to hod the fly bar was off, so I am not using that set screw hole, so I may actually go exchange it tommorrow; because when I spend money like that on a head it better be perfect!!!. but other than that, Its sweet!!! and it better be for the price
I'm waiting for my CNC head. Can't wait to get it. Sounds to me like it's working good for you. Can you post any pics of it on your Blade? Thanks!
