Haven't flown helis in a while besides the nano cpx. The motor is a scorpion 2221-6 with an 11t pinion. I need to change the esc the one now is not allowing the motor to perform as it should.
calm day for flying!
Some pictures from last week!
Nano cpx RTF 3D
Here's a video of my nano cpx doing 3D with the stock dx4e transmitter. It's on high rates with the performance blades and stock battery.

Well its wasn't really slope soaring as i usually had the motor on around 25% or less because when I turn the motor off the wind would push the plane behind the slope...but anyways its a Tech One popwing I just got. I bought the kit only as i already had this motor and esc laying around. I'm using a 2s 800mah lipo.

This has always been one of my favorite jets! This design flies great and is really stable! I made my own pushrods out of skewers
Just hovering around.
Maybe I'll post the video later. I painted the canopy, paddles, tail blades, and skids.

Exi 450 Slow Motion
This is some film from months back when I was starting out with 3d. I'm testing out the trial for Adobe Premiere Elements 10. I like it but its $100.
It's filmed in 60fps.

Latest Flight and testing new camera
So here is the latest flight with my exi 450 pro. I upgraded the head to an actual pro style head. I've noticed it to be a lot more stable but the cyclic control is decreased. This is also a test of the spy keychain camera I got on ebay for $7 shipped.

New Field
Here's a edited video flying at the new field. It was a bit windy.
Just thought I'd post this if anyone is intreseted before I try ebay. Everything on it is stock. It's a Carson Modelsport 1/5th nitro rc go kart. The .15 engine that has less than a gallon through it and great compression
. Brand new w/driver it goes for $270, w/o $230. I barely run it as I'm more into helis now, but is is very fun to drive. The driver also steers when the servo turns. I'm gonna ask $170 as it is in great condition but if somebody really wants it I'll take $150 shipped
as i really need the money right now.

Getting used to the 450 again
Well I've been flying my larger heli but after a crash I took out the 450 again. Heres a flight edited for fun. I just stuck to 3 moves but I did a full piroflip at the end. I also had more positive than negative. The cyclic servos are from a honeybee king 2

I rebuilt my Exi v1 just cause of the nice pattern on the aluminum frame.
I got some nice pictures and a short clip. I was running a turnigy 3550kv 11t at 65% flat idle up
just to try it out.
Okay somethings wrong with the video but if you view it on youtube its okay.

This is my first blog post. So I got this raptor 30 for a steal in the trader area. I never even thought about having a nitro helicopter but the price was just too good. Here's some photos and a quick vid of an easy flight. I didn't catch the landing because the memory card ran out.
