Default Blade CP PRO Tail mod

Well I got my first heli Friday and crash crash crash. In the last crash I lost my tail rotor, Rotor shaft, bearings, and drive gear.
Thats alot of parts to replace so I replaced the stock tail motor with a larger one and put a smaller prop directly on the motor shaft.
This made the tail hold a little better and the tail rotor is not so close to the ground plus its easier to fix when you do crash

Super Skids make a great stabilizer. Adds quite a bit of weight, but they are very sturdy as opposed to the stock gear.
