Default RE: axe cp thread

I would like to take back all of my previous statements. Just flew it, worked fine. This little forker is a pain in the balls. One minute I am frustrated beond belief, the next I am filled with joy from a successful flight. Man what a change in emotion.

My theory of why my heli wasn't flying good is temp. I now this sounds stupid because there are some of you flying in areas where it is over 70 all year round. But when I tried to fly this morning after repairing the main shaft, the heli would bairly get off the ground and the tail would not respond to trim and the heli would wabbe back and forth. I treid flying three separate times so there wasn't any radio interfeirence. It was around 85 and there was no wind.

When I just Flew a few minutes ago it was around 70 with just enough wind to move a peice of paper. It flew rock solid in a hover. I didn't make any changes in the trim of the radio or 3-1 board between these flites.

If tis theory is true than the electronics are pretty bad in this heli. This thoery probly isn't true, but it my only explination right now for what is going on with my heli.

Also when I was flying this morning the motors, reciever, and E-Board were all heating up to a point that I have not seen before today.
