well got everything working right and took it to the garage. WOW what a difference..... first time up i hovered it for about 2 1/2 min.

Now that don,t sound like much but that is really good for me... and had it under control the whole time... That means i was flying it,it was not flying me ......

If they make,em i,ll break,um

well what little i,ve flown with it, it great. The difference is like night an day... lot more responsive and and seems like the heli is alot more controlable.. i think i still need to tweak the radio in. I have to give it almost 3/4 trottle before it lifts off but it is really stable.
Would like for it to start to hover about 1/2 trottle.

And to think some say the radio doesn't make a difference.

My first stable hover with my Blade CP was after I added the DX7.

Well just came in from flying.....flew two batt packs and done really well.A friend of mine that flys nitro helis came over and we tweaked the radio in and he could not believe the diff. the radio made.
Also the gyro was locking in really well..
I think he is going to get a hbk2 for himself...so all in all today was a good day for heli flying " at my house anyway "
