RE: Bdavison's E-flite Blade Assembly
Well, another exciting day with the BCP. Trying to relearn side-in is (for some reason) harder than learning it the first time! I learned it within 2 weeks the first time, then I was out for about a month and a half due to a radio glitch which caused a horrible crash. I've been relearning for almost twice the flight time (it's been more than one week, and now I have 2 800mah packs instead of the stock 650). Wierd. The worst part is that I was trying to rotate in a full-circle, and when it turned nose-in towards me, I lost control and it went psycho into the brick wall behind me, fell 15-20ft, hit a plastic table and landed in some grass. The damage this time? One inch of covering peeled off one blade. I'm amazed at how much more crash-resistant this heli seems to be with the aerobatic kit. I think the curved sym blades help a lot in reducing crash damage. I hope that holds true when I go into the real crazy stuff like nose-in and inverted! [X(]
Anyway, thanks for the great tutorial Bdavison. It sure helped me after that monster crash I had.. probably saved me 5 hours and a pair of blades!
