thats great matty ty

[andy1974]

still charging! zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

have you had a flight yet. dont run the lipo down too much. stop flying just before the power starts to drop(you will learn when this is happening). let the battery cool b4 you charge it. its got an auto charger so the green light will stop flashing when its charged. mine takes about 2.5 hours to charge. it says in the manual not to exceed charge time of 120minutes. i always charge mine untill it stops flashing.

dont leave the battery unattended when charging incase they blow up or catch fire.

also - dont store it empty for a long time. when it has cooled after flying charge it up.

if you dont fly the heli for a few days and the battery is already charged, then put it on charge untill it stops flashing. this will top it up and it wont take long(about 5minutes)

anything your not sure about then you only need to ask. you can pm me, pxr5 or dashik. we all have belt cp's so should be able to help you. lookout for me and dash in the chatroom - feel free to join us anytime.

had it on for 3 hous and still the light kept flashing.anyway took it out and put it in the heli.done all my pre chcecks.god its loud! spun her up and she just spins to the left.(the nose) adjusted the trim but now joy.scared to touch her! what do i do now?

you can put the rudder trim back in the middle ant set the rudder by moving the tail servo up or down the boom - just loosen it slide it which ever way and retighten. only move it abit at a time and test it. if its worse you have move it the wrong way. get it set so it doesnt turn with the rudder trim in the middle. when you have done this then use the rudder trim for very fine adjustments.

as for charging the lipo for 3 hours - you must of run it down too much. as soon as you start noticeing a drop in power then stop flying straight away. let it cool and then recharge it.

just be carefull - it only takes a mili second of a brain fart and youve stuffed it and wont be flying again for a long time. will cost you money for lots of new parts, time waiting for them and stress fitting and setting it up again. you will find if you have a crash and you have repaired it - you think you have sorted everthing and then find something else wrong with it that you missed and have to order more parts and wait even longer. you will find that if you crash there will be alot more parts to replace than just broken blades.

hope you dont and you keep it in 1 piece
