  • Making progress...

    Well I don't know what's happened but after my crash things seemed to have moved on a pace. I tried calming the heli down a little during the re-build and after watching Finless Bobs CCPM vids and I also went back to using the 12t pinion. In the last 4 flights i've achieved a steady hover both left and right side in, not full 90deg yet but somewhere between 45 and 90 if you know what I mean, and the last 5 mins of my second pack today made the step of trying some forward flight..

    It was actually alot less manic that I expected it to be so can't wait to get up again now.. accept it's bloody raining now both my packs are recharged

    It's the first time I've flown and wished I had more packs to carry on flying.. instead of thinking thank god I haven't pranged it, that's enough for today..

    How long before I go nitro ??

    thanks for reading.... just had to tell someone..

    Nice one Martyn.

    Now you know that a crash wont be the end of the world you can cocentrate on flying rather than concentrating on not crashing

      Well done mate..

      It is a great feeling when you are in control of the heli, compared to reacting to what it does.. Keep up the good work, i know exactly how you feel, it is brilliant isn't it?

      Since i moved to nitro i haven't looked back, what i love about it is the amount of time in the air without having to recharge batteries.. I would suggest as soon as possible if you can..

      Good luck..

        Glad to hear you're doing well and I look forward to doing likewise soon.

          I've just spend the last 10 mins looking at T600 combo deals...

          seems super pro combo deals are about £580 to £600 ATM...

          Probably available for less somewhere but haven't found one yet, early days....

            Indeed they are, which is why, when I found one going for £499, I couldn't press BUY quick enough!
