Hi men........ just popping in to give another report in the life of one heli bum. The neighbor came over today and we flew our lil CX2's in my living room for a bit. He is so enamoured with my Xtreme 180's I put in it. So, just to liven things up a bit I pulled out the ORIGINAL Blade CP and fired it up for him in the front room. Pitch was way off as I had last had it connected to the Futaba 6EXH TX which has since taken a dump on me. so.......... I stole the crystals out of Ricks Gift CP and used his stock TX. Well a turn and a half later on all 3 servo links I had a nice gentle hover at 5/8ths throttle and dialed in the out of level swashplate using the subtrims. Men, this heli hasn't seen the floor of my living room for about 5 months. Hovering in the middle of my ever diminishing living room space made me realize just how much I miss the simpler aspects of these Blade CP's. Simple is as simple does I guess....... The HBK2 will most likely sit on a shelf for a while until I feel it deserves my attention again. My new trainer for FFF and yippie flights has once again moved back to the Blade CP. The ORIGINAL blade CP. Bling........ super fancy motors.......pffffffffffffffttttttttttt. Gimme stock and a lipo to really heat that motor up and I am all over it. There may be a 10 tooth in the CP's near future......wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee.....(as originally stated on Page 1 of this very thread) Blade CP!!!!!!!!!!!
