Re: i’m flying!

[betty.k]

i’ve been kinda impatient with my learning, i really should take the proper time to learn better but it’s fun to see it in the air!

as a result i’ve trashed the main blades and i’m almost through the spare set that came with it!:D
trying to find compatible blades online was tricky so i went to my local rc flight shop. he stocks the range of venom air corps stuff so i got the closest looking ones.

got em home and found them to be too thick for the mounts, so i had to grind em down a bit to fit.
that worked so i fired it up.

turns out the new blades were a different pitch to the stock ones and wouldn’t provide any lift even at full throttle:D

but all is good now, i reshaped the blades where they attach and bent them to give a sharper pitch and i’m back in the air!
i’m yet to take it on a full flight but the new blades seem more stable than the old ones:topstuff:

now i just gotta sort out this gyro business and i’ll be enjoying it more :8ball:
