so a few days ago i transitioned up in helicopters, i got semi-comfortable flying the blade MSR and got tired of flying the tiny thing and my batteries started to die out on me, so i moved up in the world, and bought the SR. getting it set up on my DX6I was a bother and a half so i called horizon and they set me up. and so i flew it, and thirty seconds in i wrecked it lol. back to the shop for new blades and a blade grip. got that done and i went back to flying it. got it trimmed out, gyro tuned half-ways decent, and running about our Heavy Equipment shop on base (slow simple hovers and some fore-aft and side to side flights), then when im messing around in a low hover +/- 1' off the ground and my tail motor burns out i got it down soft no damages. had about 3-4 minutes in the air and getting comfortable in a hover, but now i have to wait again. i did call horizon and they are sending me not 1 but 2 motors free of charge! best customer service ever lol. so i think once i get the gremlins out of it ill start to advance my helicopter chapter in my R/C life. overall i like the heli, its stable enough, and big enough, plus its got symmetrical blades and CCPM so hopefully a long way down the road i can learn mayby a simple flip or something fun like that.
ANY tips warnings and simple advice is appreciated!
wish me tons of luck!
