I recently purchased a Blade SR as my first collective pitch heli after getting used to a co-axial toy. I crashed the 8500 numerous times and replaced parts constantly, I must have gone thru 4 sets of blades, anyway back to the SR the price is good but it is extremely hard to get under control. The tail wags constantly and even after numerous tweaking it still doesnt stay smooth. I read about upgrading to a belt drive tail, but shouldnt have to go that route fresh out of the box. My first time out had the optional training kit on that I highly recommend to save on parts, lifting it up about 2 feet off the ground a breeze flipped it over and broke the plastic frame in half.
Parts are cheap, the whole main frame was less than 7 bucks. and the main gear was 4. Seriously considering a flight simulator first before I take it out again. Watched a couple very informative videos on you tube from some guy named crazyhelidude that really taught me allot
not knowing anything about collective pitch helis. Worth taking a look if your fresh to this as I am. |
