Hey just wanted to throw this info out there, may have been hit previously in this thread, but I wasnt about to read a years worth to find out,lol. For the beginners with the CPP's quick tip to mellow it out so its ten times easier to fly, not as good for the 3D part, but its easily reversed back so no big deal. We all know the weight on the flybar thing, foudn that to help a bit when they are all the way out, but i did find by just moving all the servo links in a hole on the servos to make the CPP so much easier to fly. I am new myself still, and the CPP stock is a serious handful for me. I regretfully sold mine, the buyer was a beginner, it was to be his first, so I tried all this to try to help him out, test fly it a couple times to make sure it wasnt go to be to far out of trim or anything, and found it to be nice and calm (for a light weight 300 collective) but still had its punch just with a little extra move in the stick. Now I am thinking of going out and buying another one in a month or so for a practice heli since now i know how to make it mroe rookie friendly.
