Default RE: My CX wont hover

Yeah the video and sales literature mis-state this.

It's like a trainer airplane, to use an analogy.... because of the high dihedral in a trainer airplane the plane has a self righting tendancy, if you let go or neutralize the sticks.

This doesn't mean that you actually WANT to lot go (unless you have something like AVCS/co-pilot which is another matter...) but rather that the craft has a nice tendancy as you neutralize the controls.

The BCX needs those constant inputs, but you do not have to be as skilled as say, with the CP heli.

It is a very easy heli to fly compared to most other Micro Electrics, but it will not fly itself.
