New BCX2 Batts arrive

[cambs flyer]

My two Electrolite 800mah's arrived today, there just a tiny bit and I mean slightly smaller than the E-Flite batts, but you have to compare them side by side and were talking only about a few mm.

I'm looking forward to seeing the flight times after a few charges, tbh at £5.99 each, even if they only offer 5-6 minutes each for the price you can't complain.

However the reviews seem to say other wise, so I'll time them tomorrow, plus I've ordered new blue alloy blade holders for my 450, as I've also upgraded the linkages within the head.

I've also ordered a new blue alloy Washout base to complement the new head parts.

But I have a question please, when I fit the new Washout/B do I unscrew the top plate on the rota head, take off the screw a little lower down where you need pliers to hold the nut in place while taking it off/on, lift that off the main shaft then remove the WB?

Is the WB in place just by force, and will I have to put the new one in the same spot as the plastic WB that's on there now, as Align claim it helps 3D flying, and I don't want her any more frisky than she is now, and it goes without saying 3D(ing) is a long way off yet.

Any advice on this matter would be greatly appreciated, thanks.

for the washout base, just undo the jesus bolt on the head block, pop off the 4 linkages from the swash up to the head and old washout and also the ones from the washout to the seesaw, then the whole head assembly will slide off. the washout is held in place by the pins on the head block, it slides up and down on these. shouldnt take more than 10 minutes to swap over

Thank you mate, I look forward too doing it.
