RE: Upping the controls?
I've always pushed the Belt CP as one of the best values for a 450 size beginner heli... but nooooo some ppl just HAVE to go out and spend $470 on a blade cp with the fantsy smantsy radio....
anyway.... glad you're enjoying the heli, think about using hitec 56hb servos as well as the futaba (3114?), I've got the 56's in my carbon fiber belt cp and they work great.
