Second RC Flight!
Didn't make it off the ground!
Spent almost 2 hours getting the new 43T pulley and E-Flight 400 main gear on. The 400 main gear with bearings does not fit as close as the Esky part does and requires some muscle.
The helicopter seems to spin less, but it wouldn't get off the ground at all. It started shaking and fell over and snapped a blade. I have NO stripped servos, I checked. However, I did notice one of my blade holders severely bent. Would this be why I couldn't get it off the ground? I could pick up head speed but no lift.
Sorry, pics are from my iPhone. Its 3AM now. Its the blade holder on the right in the pic.
I didn't notice anything else bent.
Also, my gyro has NEVER made the 3 beeps when I connect the battery? I think it should have. I guess I'll swap the Telebee on in the mean time while waiting on parts.
