Same here. Was ready to throw my 450 in the garbage and decided to try the cheapo zyx system. I never loved flying as much as I did after I put the zyx on. Very simple setup and very stable. I still love flying it everytime I go out.

Well I did get it sorted out after I pulled my head out of my ass and slowed down. it was a alittle nerve racking this last time. my hands were still shaking after i landed. i am usually not so nervouse but my heli buget is running out and I didn't want to crash again.

on the 4th maiden, she flew ok. I landed and made some adjusments and went back up flew her till time was up the battery. made some more adjustments and went up again. nothing real hard, just some circuits, lops and rolls. as I was testing the tail out, i was doing some pretty fast piros back and fourth i actually stripped out the TT gear and lost tail. hit TH and tried to bring her down softly but that didn't work out so well. I think I am about out of my 9 lives with this heli. bought her last sept, flew the pants off her and didn't even have a close call until I crashed around x-mas. since then I can't even count the times she has ate dirt, spent more time on the bench apart then in the air. if the heli and I can't come to some type of agrement then im afraid she will have to go.

Good. I am glad to hear you are getting it figured out without spending extra money. The number one problem with the 3gx is the EngRish instruction manual.

Haha. But even those of us that do read cannot comprehend that gibberish. How hard is it, really, to find a pilot who is fluent to translate to the English version?
