ORIGINAL: flurrrs

Hey everybody. Im a noob and I just had my first blade strike today. Now it doesnt want to get off the ground even at full power. Is it the pitch or did I break it already. The only thing I saw wrong with the blade was the paint was off. Need help please. Thanks
Are you getting any unusual vibration? You may have lost the metal weight from the blade. If not just check your balance, pitch and tracking. There is no paint on the rotors so what you "chipped" is the protective plastic coating. You need to put a piece of tape over the crack to reseal it. Then you have to balance the pair again. An easy way to check the balance is with a homemade balancer. You can look at my pics and see what I mean. You should always check after any crash.
