I have the axe cp and i was wandering when you track the main blades and you have it out of tracking do you bring the lower blade thats out of track up to the high one or the high one back down to the lower one. Im new at this and my blade cp i tracked it so over time that it wouldnt lift anymore and i couldnt figure out how to fix it. thanks for any help

basically you figure out which one is closer to where it should be, and then track the other blade.
How you do that is unplug the motors and put the heli in normal mode at 0 throttle. The pitch should be right around 0, for some heli's it's slightly negative. The other way is to put the heli in idle up and 50% throttle and trim should be at 0 pitch. Whichever blade is closer, go with that one.

OK
The lower blade should be brought up to track with the upper. This raises the angle of attack. If you bring the upper blade down then you lower the angle of attack, then you loose lift.
