i have modified my cx to give double the flight time and it sounds like a) you have radio interference or distortion and/or gyro problems. i have broken my landing skids i dont know howmany times so i just got rid of them and i have had problems with the upper rotorblades flying off the upper shaft. especially in turns this is just an expensive piece of crap for beginers. i have been flying helis for about 3 years and never had this hard of a time before with any heli i own.
you would think it was radio interference but the only signals around here are wireless 2.4 ones i think it was gyro problems i bought another crashed one off ebay and it still had the same problem but not as bad and it turns into an expensive one afer a few crashes i still wouldnt recommend it for a beginner but how did you get double the flight time?
if you broke the dowel pins off the inner shaft which is the most common type of break, just drill two small holes directly where the pins snapped off. then cut two 1/8" long pins (haywire is perfect) and stick them in the newly drilled holes before attaching your blades. works fine.
yeah thats a good idea but the shaft goes about an qurter of an inch in the head so that wil work but its really hard to do i got a new shaft since then i found a trick if you boil the parts in water for 10mins it takes the brittleness out of the nylon and gives it room to flex im going to do another review shortly
