Default RE: Help on Honey Bee FP setup

okay guys, heres what ya need to do to balance that LiPo HBFP

the battery must be under the 4 in 1, you cant balance the heli with the stock battery tray, heres what ya do....

take the rear landing skid suppot bar and put it in the front and the front one in the back, you'll notice the rear one has two holes in it. Put those holes facing forward and glue in two CF rods to stick out under the 4 in 1, then mount the battery to those rods...here's a pic.
Also,, for those pesky ball links that break off, you can CA them back on and wrap the base with thred and soak that in CA and it's as good as new!!

if you find yourself breaking stock skids, get ya a set of Blade CP skids and put those on, direct replacements and still lite. The key with the HBFP is keep it stock and lite while learning (I found out) it flys best stock.
I broke one of the Ring-Like Push-Rods and head balls and left it off and man, it flies just as good with only one and if I do crash it hard enough to pop the head/rotor off, nothing else breaks and no damage! you gotta make sure the blades still track tho, fortunately, mine do!
