I finally got this heli to hover. It's not great but at least I can get it into the air without breaking it. I solved an issue with the belt, it was just a tad loose and was wearing out the teeth plus it was leaving "lint" all over the place. What keyed me in was the noise it made on initial spool up and the noise change once I got past mid stick. The tail rotor was changing noise pitch once it kicked in.
As for the hovers, I went through five batteries today and had a great time trying to control this machine. I was still a little tense during the flights but managed to get through it. There was a coupled times during the 5th battery when I thought I was going to hit myself. I got on the sticks hard and almost lost control. In the end I pulled it out and landed with out issue.
Tomorrow I plan on doing another video attempt. I should be good to go with this other sd card I have. I have posted a few blogs since I did not know where to post my latest events.
