Review of the dynamic cnc frame for HB CP2

Bought the Dynamic CNC frame for my HB CP2. Must say I am disappointed overall! Would not buy again. May fit better on a Blade CP, but has some problems on a Honeybee CP2.

1. Servo mounts are with tape instead of the factory screws. Less secure.

2. Body doesn't fit. Rubs on servo arms.

3. Servo links are too short to reach new servo positions and don't have enough adjustment to compensate. Must get new links or rotate the servo arms on the shaft (not the preferred method).

4. Main gear rubs on frame and requires extra washers to get the needed clearance. This caused the gear to wobble.

5. Metal frame and metal components causing glitching problems. Still haven't sorted that out yet.

6. Cannot access one of the motor screws after main gear is installed.

Just wanted to add this for anybody considering this "upgrade". Anybody have any magic tricks for solving radio glitching that they want to share? If I can't get the glitching under control, I will have to go back to the stock frme/setup. Though that may not be a bad thing!

I use tape for servo mounting in my planes but I don't know if would be to keen on the idea of doing that in a heli (larger load on the servos) if the tape gives way mid flight you heli is toast..
