Just got this a couple of weeks ago. Nice BDay gift for the senior citizen. I have a couple of questions:
1) the easy one first. Do the blades not spin freely on this heli? Is the motor just that much stronger on these? I had a coaxial and FP heli (solo pro) and the rotors spin freely on those.
2) I took it out to fly yesterday and it had some serious wobble. What should I check? I have adjusted servo arms so zero pitch is mid stick. I have the grommets on the linkage. I don't know how to judge how tight the rotors should be in the head. I did crash it before I noticed the wobble, so i can't swear it started that way, but didn't really hit anything going fast (including the grass covered yard)(plus one run in with a tree that left a small nick in the rotor - are the rotors so fast that the nick could be the problem?).
This guy is fun to fly (I have my radio dumbed down so I can fly it). I can't seem to control my solo pro outside if there is any breeze at all. I'm actually a little scared to try flying this mcpx in the house... My wife watched me rev it up on the floor and yelled OUTSIDE WITH THAT ONE OR YOU'LL SOUNDING LIKE A 6 YEAR OLD GIRL! I believe her so I'm scared to fly it indoors :) she can be a pain in the (_!_) ;)
