Just put on new metal blade grips on the JetCopter....now the heli has a nasty occilation.
It can be best described as looking like a spinning coin just before it lays flat on the table....ya know...wa..........wa..........wa......wa....wa.....wa..wa...wa..wa.wa.wa.wa

Sorry..only way I knew to describe it

Any Clues?...worked fine with plastic grips

In life there is no spacebar!

make sure you have the o rings in right ... if you are using the center hub bearing, make sure your spindle moves freely inside the bearing back and forth, sounds like one blade is tighter than the other on the spindle .... also make sure you used the same hardness o rings in each blade grip ...

after i changed to the metal grips amd the hard o rings, the heli flies with a lot more authority and is even smoother ...

make sure that you didnt overtighten the bolt that holds the bearings to the spindle. when I put the metal grips on my X-perience I did this and had to loosen them both up evenly. mine seemed to be bobbing up and down in ff and it turned out to be a timing issue with the mixing unit.
