Blade mCPX Heli Flying By Eric

This is just a short video of me flying the Blade mCPX around and doing some simple aerobatic maneuvers like flips.

I modified my mCPX by adding one extra inch to the tail boom and putting canopy grommets on the swash plate ball links.

The tail boom mod is supposed to help give the mCPX more tail rotor authority which I can say it does help.

Adding the canopy grommets to the swash plate ball links tightens up linkage and helps get rid of the shimmy and shake when the rotor blades are near zero pitch. I can also say that this mod helped out greatly.

I did not come up with these modifications myself. I must thank my local heli friend Manny Falcon for telling me about them and a youtube user called Tntneon for making a lot of great mCPX videos and walk throughs while he did mods to his heli.

GW Xieda 9958 4-channel Mini Helicopter (2.4Ghz Black Edition) this is the better one for beginners and way cheaper...

I was thinking about getting this, and after I saw this video, I AM getting it! :)

I found out with my new MCPX the reason heli tips at only about 1/3 throttle is because it came out of box w/broken servo....waiting to get it shipped back to me from Horizon....was going crazy bc I can fly the MSR with near perfection...I'll get back to you...thx for responding

@robbie2737 with fly barless systems the helicopter is extremely touchy on the ground, try not giving any control input until you have taken off and are a few inches off the ground, let me know if this helps you at all.

Awesome Demonstration!! Can I ask? at the end of this vid when it tipped sideways....my question is what did you do wrong?...it seems as if I always have that problem every time...I'm not experienced with this type of flying,only coaxial...any advise would be appreciated...I'm just trying to learn to hover the darn thing & sometimes at lift off the heli just has a mind of it's own...I'm extremely gentle with the controls too!  Thanks -Rob
