3in1 question
Just recently purchased my Axe cp last week and I think it's the best RTF heli around, flew this bird right out of the box , I also have the HB King V2 and have had tail spinning issues ( got tired of fixing it ). I was recommended by my LHS to get the Axe cp and to use a lipo battery, so I found a 3s 1250 battery and switched the JST connector to a Deans connector and blew my 3in1 as the red wire on the battery was where it was suppose to be ( + lower part of the Deans connector ) and the Axe cp had the (+) on the opposite side ( go figure ).
Has anyone replaced their 3in1 yet, mine should be here either today or tommorrow, all I need to know is , if the 3in1 needs any adjustments before flying it . BTW check out your local LHS for parts prices, the 3in1 was only $55.00, while the cheapest online store was like $75.00 plus S&H
Thanks

RE: 3in1 question
I did something like that with one of my car ESC's when I first upgraded to lipo's. I'd imagine that the 3 in 1 would need to be trimmed once you install it. as it would have different settings for each aircraft. and the factory will probably put it in a ball park area. I'd start with both at 12 o'clock serttings. and make minor tweaks from there.

RE: 3in1 question
Thanks for that quick reply Revo, this has been the only heli I have managed to get to hover properly and it is my 3rd heli, the HB King V2 looks like a good heli, the stock gyro sucked and I replaced it with the HH gyro with similiar results, I might find a different gyro for it, since it has been upgraded to brushless motor, 11.1v 1800 battery and Superskids. Can't wait to get back in the air with Axe.
