Been working on learning to fly both heli's and planes, and i thought i would share my experiences in my flight training with my cp+. overall i have been pretty happy with it, but the more i work at it and try to learn, the more i find myself feeling as if the tail rotor is underpowered. i have my gain maxed and still I'm not receiving enough power half the time, especially on high powered lifts. not that I'm doing any 3d with it but if i lift quickly it goes round in more of a circle than straight up.
i have been working with this bird for a while now, off an on as i can. was just working at it today actually, and i seem to be getting it pretty well dialed in. replaced blades and ski's and still working out the vibrations but I'm hoping to get it tuned in well soon.
overall i have been pleased with her but I'm not sure it was a good choice as a beginner with ccpm and all... i am getting the hang of it tho and I'm gonna keep on going with it. i feel like i should get a couple spare batteries and work on tuning it more avidly, should help my progress more than winging it.
next thing for me is to get a handle on flying a circle pattern with her. i have hovering and basic forewords, sideways, and backwards movement down o.k. but the moment it turns so its not pointing away from me i lose it, so thats my next point to work.
