Default RE: E-FLITE BLADE CP PRO

MoeJoe,

You can't simply use any radio with a helicopter. If the helicopter has CCPM (which is what the blade has), then you need a radio that has been programmed to do the mixing for the swashplate movement. What that means is that there are 3 points on the swashplate for the blade which has 120 degree CCPM so the radio has to know how to move these three points to control the aileron and elevator while at the same time controling the pitch of the main rotor blades.

I don't know about the pre-installed programming of the radio you mentioned but if it has built in programming for helicopter CCPM (then manual for the radio should mention this), then your in luck.
