Blade CX2/3 - 3in1 Malfunction
Was interested in finding out if anyone else was having issues with the Blade CX2/3 burning out the 3in1 unit. Three times now I have seen one of these E-flite helicopters burn out a 3in1 unit while connected to a Spektrum DX7. In all cases the helicopter was properly bound to the transmitter and the transmitter was turned on and in the proper model prior to plugging the battery into the heli. When the battery is plugged into the heli the blades begin to turn immediatly prior to the lights on the receiver lighting.
In one case when the battery was not immediatly disconnected from the heil not only was the 3in1 unit burnt, the battery began to get extremely hot and smoke. Not only did I have to replace the 3in1 unit I aslo had to purchase a new battery. Was interested to see if anyone else was having this issue. In the last case I just got done flying the heli with another battery and had not even powered off the transmitter, just replaced the battery.
