What difference has it made? mine are still on

[J-Heli]

I've still got mine on.

rotorhead58,
Is there a prominent difference between having them on and having them off?

Put back on - seems to soften up the response a bit.

I have them off, it flies like a pig with them on. :)

Whoops, let me amend that to say, I replaced them with the weights from my blade, and I have them adjusted about 6 or 7mm from the inside.

A slow pig I hope!! I have an idea I'm going to need all the help I can get. :oops: For me, slower is better.:thumbup:

i can't tell the difference. this heli is inconsistant. one flight it's ok, next one it's awsome, next one it's horrible. my spindle shaft is very moveable. if i grab the blade grips and rock it back and forth, it looks like a teeter totter. i've replaced everything in the head but the head block itself. this is the last big problem that i need to solve, and i think it's the source of the heli just wanting to go in any direction it wants to go while hovering. :thinking

Yes, the rubber bushings(I assume) seem to be very soft or shot. Abrupt attitude changes cause my 200 to wobble. I don't really have an issue with keeping it in one place if there is no wind. Even the slightest wind will change how it flies.

It feels more stable with the weights on. I had mine off at first and it's quite a handful. After putting the weights back on, I could really start enjoy flying it in the basement.
