did you get it flying again mate.and a funny thing happened to me i was asked to set up a raptor 30 for a new flyer done that got it into a stable hover a couple of simple turns and it feels great landed took the guy through the safty bits gave him the transmitter and blow me down he can hover first flight first time a true NEEWBE .then me mate went out and he suffers from never being wrong and he cant be told cyndrome well 40ft up and down....
blades
main shaft
landing gear
canopy
boom belt
fly bar
thats for starters and i beleve all down to a broken servo horn on the elevator servo...when he fueled up it was pointed out the the swash was not level way out of level and i took the canopy off to find the horn had slipped round on the servo (damage from a previouse tera ferma metting) after he told me to some thing off ..i took it he would replace the broken horn NOPE..

did we laugh behind his back i wont be flying with him any more..

You always get one like that , that does not go to the effort of slipping there canopy off and checking everything before they leave for the field then rechecking control surfaces work ok at the field and a range check ... Geez .. people like that want banning from the hobby .. Me I check each model over before it leaves my house and do a range check as well for the start of each flying session ....These things aint toys and need to be treated with the upmost respect in every instance ....
