I have it flying pretty good, but I have a lot of helicopters and although this one is my favorite coaxial, it's not my favorite helicopter that I fly. It has to be set up right and even then, it can be very twitchy to fly. It has some peculiar flight characteristics due to it using variable pitch for rudder. There's a couple of lenthy threads on RCgroups.com where these idiosyncracies are discussed.
Did you buy it local or online? Does it have the extended inner-shaft upgrade? I almost hit the buy button earlier on one of these, it is a toss up between this and the Creata. Thx
I bought it online from WOW Hobbies in Califfornia. This shop only sells the LM3 as a modified product with their own extended shaft and collar installed. They also turn up the "extent" and test fly it. You can buy a stock one a lot cheaper from Miracle Mart in Hong Kong.

The LM3 may not be what you hope it to be. I'm on there as "xviper".
