Dogs don't fly, so tail wagging is good.

RE: E-FLIGHT BLADE CP

Yes, LiPos are definitely worth the extra worry. One thing though: It is likely that draining them to the point the heli won't hover is over-draining the battery. My LiPo alarm goes off well before...

RE: E-FLIGHT BLADE CP

Okay, I went through a bunch of gotchas when I upgraded to LiPos. It's never just the battery. Here's my experience:

RE: E-FLIGHT BLADE CP

RE: E-FLIGHT BLADE CP

Well, that's all well and good, but coming from just a stock BCP, you'd need to throw in a TX and RX, not to mention that on top of the SE cost, you'd need to buy the motor/esc and the gyro. With the...

RE: AHHHHH... im gonna stomp my bcp

Yes I have both installed. It works much better with the aluminum head because it's pretty. Yes the shafts aren't straight. When installing one, find the point at which it's tightest and adjust it...

RE: E-FLIGHT BLADE CP

Yes, you want to practice hovering with a lower head speed. I only say that because I figure if you suffer a blade strike you will break less. I just checked, setting the throttle trim on the TX all...
