Thanks for the replies. Sorry it took so long to get back to ya'll, but had to run down to HobbyTown USA and pick-up some more upper main rotors!! Bzinfinity, I'm trying to get this darn thing to hover again. I get it up about 3 feet (in the house) and when I try to trim it up it just doesn't respond. It insists on flying backwards and the nose goes left (looking from the rear of the chopper). I took it to the aforementioned store yesterday to let them trim it, and they did a fairly good job, and it flew quite well except for it seemed heavy on the right stick. Then, I took off the 'training wheels' and now the darn thing goes all over the place again, like it did before, and I can't seem to get it re-trimmed. (My reason for needing more upper main rotors

) I could take it back and let them re-trim it for me again, but I need to learn this kind of stuff for myself instead of letting someone else do it for me. I can't learn anything that way!! Here's what I've done so far. After reading the manual that came with her, I attempted to adjust the 'trim pot' alittle bit at a time, but after about an hour of that there still was no change in her flying habits. I tried the trim slides on the controller, but she still acts like a Hummingbird of crack!!

I have never flown an RC model and I was told to start with some cheap planes, simply because helicopters are much harder to fly, but I've always been intrigued by helicopters, so I figured I'd start with the CX-2. So, whattya think? Is there still hope?!!!
BTW, after reading alot of the other posts, I also sprung for a heatsink and a metal center shaft. However, I think I'll wait until I become airborn before I attempt some of those other mods ya'll talked about!! I can't even fly the darn thing and I'm already talking about mods!! Go figure
