Default blade mcx rotor tracking

Got one of these for christmas, really love it ,but I noticed the top blades are out of track. Is this normal? The bottom blades track perfectly. Is there any way to adjust?

Its not really normal for the blades to be out of track, but can usually be cured by balancing the blades or trying different combo's of blades to get a set that works good and tracks for ya. When ya balance the blades apply tiny piece of tape (Scotch/ or Packing) to the underside of the lighter blade to get them to match in the balance.

I've never had to balance my MCX blades and they track great. I just find a good set that balances good and use em'... One thing that usually works for me if the tracking is off on the uppers is simply taking the ball-link that is attached to one of the upper-blades and disconnect it, and attach it to the otherside on the other blade and see how it then tracks trying out the other side/blade instead of the one you were using when the tracking was off. It should work, or help doing this as it has for me...

Enjoy your MCX ! A very nice little heli, and pretty stout also... Let us know if ya get it tracking and such.



Have a good one,

~ Jeff
