    Not yet,my rear crown fell off when i took it out the box...had me fiddling for a while...make sure the boom is all the way home both ends.

    Then it rained so i spent an hour shortening wires on my 450mah gens packs.

          Some reports of the torque tube (rod) being fitted the wrong way around from the factory, that may be related?

          The stops for the gears are different at each end, rod end should be flush with the gear face, if it isn't the rod is in the wrong way around.

            I'm not sure yet!

            I saw Adam Turner flying one at LHMC a couple of weeks back and it looked great while it was flying but it kept doing that thing that annoys me about MCPX's where it just drops out of the air for no apparent reason.

            I'll probably end up getting one though, and then I'll hate it! LOL

                  Got mine home, charged up the Standard & Gens Ace 450mah batteries (which fit in the canopy snuggly) whilst I pottered about in the house.

                  Just this second been in the garden for a couple of batteries using the DX8 settings from the book & it's locked in, straight up into a hover no issues.

                  One bit of advice from my local LHS was to tighten up the blades (tail & mains).

                  Can't wait to fly it about a bit more at the weekend, hopefully be able to sneak into hand luggage when on my holiday

                  Thumbs up so far from me.

                    Hi All, Just got mine, i was lucky i got mine delivered by hand from RC HERO, nearest shop to me in sunny Cornwall ( well has been for the last 2 hours) , they dropped it to me, i put it on the bench done the list of checks, and have now spun it it up, Wooooo Hoooooo tiz brilliant, super smooth and incredibly well locked in for a little tiddler, it really does fly like a much much bigger heli. flown on stock battery, timer at 3:30 cell warm, motor hot and cells showed 3.79v so long enough really, but its upside down on the first flight,

                            is the gens ace too heavy then? does it make the heli nose heavy?
                            more reports please - ours get delivered tomorrow and i want to order those gens ace if they're ok.

                            where are you guys getting your adapters from? for the gens ace battery connectors
