| Well, my Hummer flew well today for the first time in months. When the stock motor gave out, I put in a 280BB, and I was losing the tail. Hell, I never really had it, it would just spin and spin. At the same time I put in the motor, I upgraded to CF baldes from HeliHobby. Mains and Tail. I tried every trick I read and made up a few, but I would just spin along the ground.
Then, today, I tried a new trick. I swapped out the CF blades and tail for the stock units. Not only do I have better lift, but the tail is now right where I put it. I am getting some shake, but I will re- balance things tomorrow.
For the price of these CF mains and tail, I could have had 3 sets of the stock. 
Live and learn.
Wow, the ground was closer than I thought. |
