That is normal and a part of the reason that some claim short stock motor lives. Breaking the motor in using the water method has been suggested so that the brushes match the curvature of the armature before the motor is put into service. The best solution is to go brushless.

Thanks Skypup, I am just getting back into this hobby and have never fooled with the mini helis. I have been off the sticks for 8 years.

Same here Mike. Everyone said it was like riding a bicycle and that you "never" forget. For me it was like riding a bicycle alright......like riding a bicycle down hill with no brakes at forty plus miles an hour. [X(]
