yeah, I know its typically a no-no, but I never had a problem doing it. Flies very nicely so far, time restraint only let me have one tank , so its not dialed yet, its going to be an animal at 7 lbs 6 oz. taking care of that dialing in today.

Danny,
your gonna be a hater once you get it dialed in , We finally got Steven's YS50 dialed in late yesterday at the Jax event and it was ROCKIN, we actually had one of our other RJX Reps there with us so everyone got to see a pair of Xtreme's flying.
The new RJX Flash Tip blades flew great, Mike got down and dirty with his new RJX blades and scuffed them real good on the asphalt and they held up just fine.

No Regrets for Sure.Well, I finally got a chance to spend some time on the machine at the field today. I had a great day, burned a bunch of fuel, got the machine dialed in and proceeded on beating the ever living snot out of it. Handled it like a prize fighter. I am very impressed with the straight line stability (lack of pitchiness) and sharp, very very crisp collective and cyclic pop. I am pretty darn happy with my decision to give this heli a chance as little known as it is. I think the more people see this fly, this one will pick up in popularity. Good Job RjX I must say you have got a good solid machine here.
sidenote:
I was also pretty concerned with the amount of carbon fiber and aluminum flying this heli on 72 mhz (especially the 14mz) but it was just fine all day.
