I'm glad to hear you can at least get off the ground, but still curious about the limited movement. In idle up, mine nearly touches the lock ring at full throttle and actually pushes the head to the limit on negative. Close to 1/2" travel end to end. I don't see 1/4" on yours. In normal mode are you now at zero pitch with no throttle? I'd guess you're about 5 degrees, which is what it takes to lift off. Then when the head speed gets high enough you get lift. Hopefully I'm wrong, if not your 4-in-1 is not sending the right signals to your servos.

I will take pics of the horn throws tomorrow. Had to charge it so I left it alone and did some work on my Nascar 4.5" slotcar , we have our first race tomorrow so spent alot of time at the track tonight which is also the LHS where i bought my BCP from. I do have to admit i think i bit off more than i can chew with the BCP ( just dont tell my wife i said that !! ) . I really wanted something that i could fly around causaly around the yard with . I just didnt want something that i would completly out ground and become bored with which seem it would be the case with some of these counter rot blade copters out there. I suppose it will just take time but i still have not even thought of doing a 360 nose turn yet. All in time as they say.
