Jay,

I knew you would like it, what until you get your upgrades finished. It really is very good helicopter. I agree with the transmitter, the cover does not lock in place, and it is stout.. A quick and easy fix for the battery cover, a big hunk of black electrical tape to hold it in place. One thing you don't want to happen is the cover fall off while flying and a battery drop out. Works great and really cheap![8D] Great idea on the sticks and screwing them down farther, I'll have to do that after my nap.

Down the road when you are adjusting the blade pitch, make sure that the left knob on the TX is at the 12 o'clock position.

The knob on the right is similar to throttle curve, I like to keep mine at/or between the 3 o'clock to the 6 o'clock position.

The thing I like about the transmitter, is that you have instant access to pitch and throttle curve. If you need less blade pitch/more head speed, just turn the left knob ccw, more pitch/less head speed, turn the left knob cw.

Your having fun now

God Bless,

Dave / Choppersrule
