weird loss of power...help please

[jlsider@rogers.com]

Hey all,

Well I fired up my cppro the other day and noticed it seems to have hardly any power at full throttle. It lifts off and flys fine, but I tried flying in idle up today (for first time ever). Went ok until I went inverted, and there was not enough lift inverted. As a result it smashed to the ground:mad:

Anyways, any idea what the lack of power could be? I just installed a new main motor. It has two flybar weights on each end of teh flybar rod...maybe that could be robbing the power?

Thanks for any input,

Jer

What battery do you use, what charger? how many times have you used the battery? Do you fly until it cant fly anymore?

hey, I use the stock battery and charger. I have used the batterys for about a year now, and usually only fly relaxed ff for about 10 mins. On occasion I have flown until I have noticed a power decrease butn then stop. Maybe I am due for new batteries?

I think my pitch is ok, but could that effect the power?

Thanks,

Too much pitch in the blade cp helis quickly overloads the stock motor. might well be your problem.
