Default RE: CX2 missing part question

there's a scrape on the aluminum head, so its probably been crashed before - definitely check the shafts for straightness - use the guide - a laser pointer helps check the upper head to be straight and not wobbling, just shine it in the middle of the upper head and spin it up slowly

be sure to resist the urge to just go for it without checking it out first - just eats blades that way and bends shafts and doing the guide first will save you a lot of grief and money - if you can't resist, just charge the lipo, put batteries in the tx and turn it on, insert the lipo into the bird and power it up - leave it alone while the 4-in-1 posts and wait for the steady green light - then spin her up very, very slowly but don't take off until you've checked everything using the guide - if it wobbles then look at the shafts to see what's bent and check the blade tracking - good to tell what condition the bird is in anyway before using the guide
