Hey, all--

I'm a new heli enthusiast and just got my Blade CX2 about one week ago. Having WAY too much fun- both indoors & out.

Hit upon a VERY cost effective and durable skid mod at the local Walmart. Believe it or not, it's those brightly-colored, neoprene covered, elastic neck straps for sunglasses, hunting glasses, etc. Cut them into about 1.5 or 2 inch sections. Build up the diameter of the skids with a few wraps of scotch tape and slip a segment over the tape.

Good cushioning & very grippy (my heli's survived several rough parking lot landings and stays put (no bouncing or "skating" during take-off)

Enjoying the forums here and all the learned advice.
