Default CP+ PROBLEM SOLVED!!!!!!!!!

ok so i posted awhile back about having trouble with my cp+ related to transmitter interference. well today out of the blue i decided to open up the controller and see if something might be wrong inside. to my surprise the antenna wire that is soldered to the board was only connected by a single strand of the wire. after re-soldering the wire and going out for a tesat flight im no longer having any issues. im posting this to find out if anyone else has had this factory problem with there controller or if its just a random ocurance with my controller. also want to post this so that if anyone in the future has trouble with interference that cant be solved then this might be helpful in diagnosing the issue. chris

Isn't it a great feeling!

Pissed that the factory doesn't catch things better, though.

Yup, that sort of thing can happen in any product, unfortunately.

yeah its great that i found that problem and solved it but now theres the issue of these crappy rotor shafts. just went out for a flight, everything was great nice smooth hover, a slight gust of wind caught it so i set it down and it tipped over to the left at very low throtle, and guess what, just from the blades gently hitting the ground, the rotor shaft bent. all i can say is GRRRRRRRR. its bad enough that i got into a hobbie that i cant really afford, but then theres the issue of these companies sell products that are cheaply made. id rather spend 400 on a blade cp that can withstand some accidental mishaps, than to have spent 200 dollars on a heli that cant handle the blades barely tapping the ground. i feel like ive wasted so much money buying this thing. i never had these issues with my blade cx-2, but now that ive upgraded it seems like the company is designing these things to break easily so that they can make money of you on the replacement parts, so eflite, go "F" yourselfs. chris
