I have a blade cp and was never able to get it to hover. I have the real flight simulator and have hours of practice on it. Thought it was time to go out and try the cp. I have the blade cx and mastered it. The problem I am having with the cp is that when I apply the throttle the blades want to go forward and hit the ground. I have my settings set to the middle postion on the radio and my blades seem to be set right. I have the battery so that when I balance the heli it is almost straight just leaning forward slightly like the book says. I even tried to make it perfectly straight and still same problem. Is there anything that I could be doing wrong are do you think there is something wrong with the heli. I am new to this so I am unsure. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks, Michael

make sure swash is exactly level - if yours is going forward then look from the side

You mite be able to take off the servo connectors where they meet the swash plate and play with them. What I did when I had a similar problem was, I twisted these to screw them in and out. I also recorded every twist and half twist so I could return it to its default if it didn't work. This may help you get the swash plate level (or at least you'll fly level).
