@McChilla1 Thanks for the kind words. This is pretty big step up from a coaxial. I did it, but think I'm an exception. If you have a club or people around you that have flown Collective Pitch helicopters then go for it, if not you may want to start out with the little mCPx. It's collective pitch and works out of the box.
I have a 250, 450, & 500 and I spend more time building/tinkering/tweaking with them, than I do flying them. I enjoy it, but others just like to fly.

What gyro and tail servo are you using? My 250 with gp750 and ds420 on tail doesn't snap to a stop nearly that nicely. Then again it could be on my end since this is my first building experience.

@rjc003 I am running the Logictech 2100T and 3100G combo. I also have a preloaded bearing spacer set from a guy on helifreak called heimjoint. It greatly reduces the slop in the tail. The 250 was my first helicopter build too.

Hi Rick,
What mode do you use for the video? idle or normal?

@calvinkong I have always flown in idle up. Since this was my first CP heli, most of the 3D guys told me to learn to hover in idle up as soon as I could. So after about 10 flights, I switched to idle up and never looked back. Plus the constant RPM's help keep the tail locked in better. In normal mode, the tail would swing out on me some in pitch pumps.

@artyflo Thanks! You should see me now. All I could do was figure 8's inside. Now over a year later I got a TREX 500. The first time I took it outside I did HUGE figure 8's and FFF. It was so big and easy to see, I could fly it like an airplane!
Then I took the 250 outside and flew it around like an airplane (although much closer than the 500) Now I can do loops and rolls and flips. The 250 got more fun after I learned FFF with the 500.
