Default RE: E-FLIGHT BLADE CP


ORIGINAL: Gage.

Well what i wanted to ask, is there any easy mods i can do to the blade cp that would be nice. I already modified the battery holder, i replaced the rubber bands with a piece of velcro that wraps around the battery, which gives easy installation, with the little piece of velcro on the battery to.


Thanks for the hellp
One easy mod is the landing gear. It's from Heli-direct for 11.99 and worth the effort. Another is the aluminum swash. I know there are those who disagree, but for me it's one of the best things you can do.

I just wanted to make a comment on the velcro. You still want one rubber band around the battery for security. The velcro keeps the battery in position, but if you happen to make a sudden turn or (heaven forbid) bump something, the rubber band keeps it from popping loose. Heli's don't fly well with the battery hanging from them. Or worse yet, disconnecting in flight. As the song says, don't ask me how I know.
