Default RE: Great Flight

Thanks Heliko,

Looks like white grease is the way to go, and that stuff is the stuff to get.

Just replaced all broken parts and test flew. Perfect balance, perfect tracking. Its never ran so good and so smooth. I still notice in normal mode when the collective is increased, the heli actually drops. Its like the blades are increasing pitch, but the motor is not increasing power. The added drag is slowing the head speed until lots of power is added, then it climbs and rotates. In Idleup mode, its as smooth as a babies bottom. I've been just flying in Idleup lately.
