And a good morning to all.........or for some of you "easties" good afternoon! Been having alot of issues with the CNC head on the CP. Tail bob at higher speeds/more collective is insane. Just figured out this morning I have a bent main shaft........ its brand new! I bought a prebent one I guess and maybe if I crash just right it will be perfectly straight. Sadly, that means I am down to just one "good shaft" so will have to order a few more. Trying to get these straight is such a pain and with CNC weight factored in, perfection is the bare minimum.
This tail bob issue has been going on for a long time now and after sanding and scotchbriting the spindles and lighty sanding the inside of the blade bearing races, I still am fighting it. The o rings are rock solid and holding up well but I just don't seem to be finding the cause. I am going to the LHS today ( just got a check from one of the jobs) and darn the heli gods...they put my bank within 3 blocks of the hobby shop! Also need some TREX parts, the maiden hover didn't go so well.
WB Barrick, we missed ya old buddy! Choppers, Ty for the kudos on starting the thread. Like I have said time and again, this took on a life of its own and has grown to be one of the miost viewed threads on this forum. Atzanik, nice vid ya took and it still amazes me that you are on a stock battery still. I am wondering if you will ever go to lipo....... Your fly times will be insane and power difference is pretty amazing. I still have 2 stock batterys and enough parts to build a second CP minus the 4 in 1. I might just have to buy a frame today too and get a second CP going. going back to a stock version may prove interesting. Possibly upgrade to a bell hiller head tho. crash............... what is your arrival estimate on the 3 in 1? I got my fingers and toes crossed for you on this one. Nice fitting end for a suspect electronic part. It got the electric chair for letting you down! Sorta like the old saying " We gonna give you a nice fair trial followed by a decent hanging"...........heh Wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee.............Blade CP!!!!
