Micro Heli - Blade CX2 (crashes) vs. Nitro 1:10 4WD - TC3

*** Drag Race ***

E-Flite Blade CX2:
Stock Blades, Shortened Fly Bar (1" each side), Front Weighted by Battery Position, Stock Lipo, CNC Aluminum Swashplate, Lower Head, Upper Head, Bearing Holder, 44 Police Body (heavy).

Team Associated TC3 Nitro:
Stock 0.15 Nitro Engine, HPI Racing Slicks, HPI Racing Foam, Nissan Skyline Body (painted yellow with house latex) lots of holes--cut very badly.

You will see that the Blade CX2 wins the drag race w/ a 3 MPH headwind, but on the race back the tail wind made the microheli drop too low and it doesn't end well.

New 'indestructable' landing gear $7.99. New stock upper/lower rotor blades $0.99 x 2.

If anyone wants me to make a video about the specs of the CAR or the HELI, message here and I'll show you how it is set up.

Top Speed of TC3 approximately 30-55 MPH.

Top Speed of BCX2 approximately 20-47 KPH (wind dependant).

infomatic ... i have a question : when you cut the flybar 1 inch each side the cx2 are less stable or it the same??

thanks!

[infomatic]

I found that stability is the same unless you stick really hard or too fast, but that is normal I guess. For the most part however, if you become unstable and center your stick, you recover faster.

Just in my experiences.

how fast does the heli go

[infomatic]

That day? 25-35 I would guess.

[antipolesmoker]

what i had noticed is that you can change the yaw via the lwr swash linkage on the pre drilled plate on the servos to create faster speeds(obviously More Avdanced piloting needed). however; this makes the lower rotor bow more so a shaft outer and inner needs to be fabbed very cool in the end tho

[infomatic]

Yes sir! In fact, both shafts have to be perfect, because you can actually make the heli flip upside down in this configuration if you stick too hard and too fast. If either of the shafts vibrate it is near impossible to trim, much less stay stable.

more air would just make it leaner...
