Default RE: Wheeeeeeee.......... Blade CP!



HAVE BEEN TRYING OUT all the different batteries that will make the SR run (off the driveway)
Couldn't stood it s'moah and grabbed the heli, the transmitter and four batteries and drove
two blocks to a wide open space available in the neighborhood.
Was trying the 3S 800mAh Lipos from the previous helis and they do very well. so: theoretically
I can fly the SR for more than 3 hours with all the batts here. [X(]
In the wide open space I had to take off rather "positively" because the terrain is very rough.
I have to report that this SR is a pleasure to FLY. Truly a delight.
It is VERY responsive, but mildly so. I was in STUNT mode, with HIGH dual rate. the breeze WAS
present quite steady must have been at 5 or 6mph.
She turns very nicely, PIROs are neither fast nor slow, just right in my opinion. Both directions.
The breeze, when it gusts, picks up the HELI quite a lot, but with it being so LIGHT, that's it....for real
it's supposed to jump.
now that I have it flown, the comparison with the HBK gets more "refined" the flying is quite close in
performance but this SR appears to be somehow mellower. (bad description ? ) or the HBK series and
maybe the TREX also is more sharply defined by the finger input.
I would describe the true value of this HELI lies in the "jump" from simulator to REAL LIFE...which is what
has held me back for so long......this SR helps a lot.
I will go against the CRASH-CRASH opinion by saying that I DO LIKE THIS LITTLE SR
