This hobby was fun....
Being 12-13 flying an actual RC Helicopter. Not thoes junk things that they sell everywhere under 100 bucks. I mean a BCX. Then a BCP. I practiced soooooooo much on the simulator that i could fly my BCP greatly. But it NEVER flies. EVER. Now my BCX is in peices, just the servos and motors all wired to echother, and probably in poor quality too.
I dont get it, it used to be fun. It used to be repairable. It used to even work, but now it isn't or dosen't.
I dont have the money to get a new one, and the ones that i have are just bad and dont work.
I would apreciate some help!
1. My blade CP wont EVER get off the ground. Nothing is broken.
a. How can i use the pitch guage tool taht i have (http://h1070257.hobbyshopnow.com/pro...?prod=EFLH1000)
b. I hate the Ni-Cads. What is a good Li-Po that would work for it?
2. My blade CX is starting to break after 45 seconds of flying time. what do i do?
I love this hobby, but im starting to hate it because of my helis! I would like to enjoy it, so plz help me out.

RE: This hobby was fun....
About the battery, i got a really nice one (LiPo) yesterday, a charger too that hooks up to a motorcycle battery.
I think the CP shall take off soon!
As for the Blade CX, i got it all plugged in and started up.
BIIG problem.
On full throttle, it does not lift up (BCX renember)
It slowly spins one direction. i oppisite the yaw input and it keeps spinning at the same speed. I just touch it the other yaw, and it spins faster.
So i take it apart, nothing is mulled, everythings tight, yea.
Im wondering if it was bout incorrect 4-in-1 servo plug in, so im asking this
1. Which direction do the lower blades spin?
a. For neutral (hover without yaw) is this lower one faster?
2. Which direction do the upper blades spin?
a. For neutral (hover without yaw) or is this top one faster?

RE: This hobby was fun....
Forget my depression, im as happy as i can get [>:]
!
My blade CP, ill tell ya wat happened.
I was expecting a slow power up. at 50 percent throttle it SHOT UP and almost hit me in the face! I was soooo happy! I got it to land, take it off, almost crash, land softly about 4 times. Its NOT broken still, i just need some sim practice! OOOH man it WAAAS the battery that made it not work!
As for my blade CX, i got my dad to look at it and he said it was spinning backwards. he felt lift while holding it.
I suited it up (body and skids) and took it out back. It dove backwards and touched down. I noticed the cryllic was all the way down. I centered it, and placed it ready
NEXT i powered it up, and it did a half backflip. yes a BACKFLIP. Its down and out, so i could use some advice, i dont know wats goin on!
Ok im off to the sim [8D]
