hey, can you please tell me how you strapped in your battery?

[Ber60beltcp]

With the long battery-strap (velcro) like on page 12 of the manual

I have some wonder about the belt. Normaly after how many flight we should replace the belt to a new one? I found that there are some black powder like substains on my Belt-CP tail blades, Is it caused by the friction/runbbing of belt? Is this situation NORMAL? I worry the belt going to break during the flight.

[Ber60beltcp]

I don't know the anwser to that question and the black powder is belt material left from friction and is found round the pinions of the belt and I have it to. I don't know if this is normal. Perhaps you can ask in the Helifreak forum there is a belt CP section and many of my friends will be glad to help awnsering any questions you have

[Ber60beltcp]

What do you mean ?

@totoni2000 concerning battry strap - i cut mine in two, and have one towards the rear and one towards the front of my battery, i also use a large rubber band to stop slip, very easy to strap, and holds battery very firmly, hope this helps you

[totoni2000]

lol. the battery is a pain to strap.

Thanks ThunderTrent. will do as you mentioned to the belt. Yes, at this moment almost all the pilot I know said that Belt CP is harder to fly, said that the response is a bit delay. Anyway, I will try my best to get control first before go for my second heli. Thanks.

[ThunderTrent]

oh and before i forget it, apply only on the inside of the belt. since the gears are driven from inside belt. And apply oil drops while turning the mrotorhead so that it is spread throughout the entirebelt. :)

(id like to share for everyone that this CP BELT in my opinion is harder to fly than my Raptor 90size, and only reason for that is that the controls are STICKY! they dont turn back into 0degress on the servos. so you have to apply a stickmovement as a feedback to this)

[ThunderTrent]

You can drop it at the gear that is visible from the side, where the belt is attach to the pinion that again is attached to the mainrotorgear. Get it? its hard not to see it :) I used a special oil for gears for my Raptor, that tube had a needle, so that it was easy for accessing tight corners.

Your welcome :)

[cpc7084]

Where should I drop the oil? Thanks.

[cpc7084]

I knew it now. The black powder like substain was from the screw that hold the roller which located beside the tail blades.

Thanks.

hi! its normal for belts to get worn abit. but it wouldnt snap just like that :D If you want to keep that belt over years to come without changing it i might suggest you add a little drop of oil. Not the greasy ones...thin oil, like the ones you cook with. that will keep the elasticity of the rubber and not get worn as quickly. remember, do not overuse.
