Hello,
I am new to HeliFreak and RC Helicopters. I've been flying airplanes for 5 years, but wanted to try something different.
I bought a Blade CP Pro. I flew it stock for a long time to learn basic hovering and forward flight. I then upgraded it to brushless and added the heading hold gyro.
Finally, yesterday, when buying some new retaining pins I also thought I would try out the Carbon Fiber Blades for the heck of it.
Of the two blades, I couldn't get one of them to be the appropriate stiffness. I was very confused by this, because the wood blades you can tighten down to the correct amount.
Well, to make a long story short, I came to HeliFreak to research this problem. I ended up writing a post.
I went to take pictures to add to the post to help illustrate the problem and ... I found the answer by looking at the pictures.
Apparently, one of the nuts fell out. I happened to have something this small in the spare parts bag luckily enough.
So thanks for nothing :lol: ... Helifreak.
