[Mejito808]

Is that a stock canopy or did you paint it blue? Nice vid by the way.

[tekstyle373]

@Mejito808 It is the stock canopy from the police fuselage

[fpsvincent142]

mine wont stop moving foward and spining to the right. any help?

[tekstyle373]

trim on the radio, out of balance blades, bent fly bar, possible the pots on the 4in1.

what is the Loctite use for and where do i apply it? i really hope you can help as i'm really new to flying.

[tekstyle373]

blue loctice and used on the motor mount screws.

[jacheech95]

can you tell a difference from the aluminum upgrades and the stock plastic stuff?

[skrape110]

oh yeah

its the best thing u can do for this chopper

only dont buy eflite parts. go on hopmeup and buy the aluminum stuff there, its way cheaper and WAY better

The extreme motors are a little 'pokier', but like 'tuned' anything, the bearings wear quicker, the gears tend to strip faster, and without Loctite on everything, screws undo.

My advice would be to stick with the stock motors and invest in 1000mah battery. I found that the extremes ran just as hot as the stock.

[tekstyle373]

I no longer have the heli, but besides more power I never experienced any of the things you mentioned shot of need for loctite which I do anyway. I ran them for about 80 flights and they still had good life left on the brushes when sold and always ran around 110F degrees where the stockers hovered in the 130F range. Maybe I was too easy on it? lol

[madcat303]

lol, im putting this motor in a xmod

[kualalumpar]

great vid!! im thinking about getting the motors do you think its worth it? how much were they?

[tekstyle373]

thanks. they really help alot. more power and run cooler than the stock motors.

I paid $17 each for them at my LHS.

[littleseanx]

hey tekstlye how do the motors make the heli better im looking at buying some.

[tekstyle373]

they run cooler, and have alot more power.

[littleseanx]

sorry i posted twice i couldnt see my post when i refreshed. Do they cut down on battery time??

[tekstyle373]

no, they run cooler, I get about 1-2 more minutes of flight. Not significant, but they certainly do not reduce time.

[littleseanx]

what do the ball bearing motors do for the heli??

[lilcupidbabe78]

I am looking at getting one. How easy are they to fly?

[tekstyle373]

they are very simple in comparison to a full collective pitch heli. they do not do well outside though.

[enjoi54321]

hey dicky t ur good at flying helis...man i can even control my friends heli when i flew it

[tekstyle373]

thanks. I'm just learning though. i need to get alot smoother and master side in and nose in before I consider myself "good"
