RE: New Walkera 22e... I love it!!!!! Goodby Blade CP
Ooooooops... Sorry its been so long between posts, havent been in here in a while... Lets see... The ONLY difference between a 22e and a Venom Ranger 3d is the color and decals. Thats it! I have parts with both the Walkera and Venom labels on them. NO DIFFERENCE.... Yes the Blade CP blades works on the 22e. The chord is wider and the head is a tad thicker but I have not had a problem. Im still learning myself... but the blades didnt seem to make nay difference except you get a little mor lift at lower RPM, but I would assume at a cost in battery time. I wish I dould find a CNC head for it. I break things just trying to fine tune it. (Old fumbling fingers).... I am waiting on a new head rocker. tried to fly it without bell hiller set up and it didnt like it. So I have new parts coming from RC and Me. Those El Paso guys are good about getting you stuff. I paid $97 for the 22e on thier ebay site. Dont get me wrong about the Blade CP. I just got tired of working on it. I got over 30 full battery flights hoovering and doing the back and forth stuff inside a very large building. I was NEVER able to do that with he CP. The part that got broke, I BROKE it trying to remove a link from a ball. I need the link/ball pliers because of my LARGE fumbling fingers I guess. But I do not know where to get a pair. I have a Henoeybee 2 fixed pitch that is also a pleasure to fly and Idont know how many fights I have on it. I have 8 nmh batteries that will work on it and I have gone through all of them in a single flying session dozens of times so far. Someday I hope I will be able to actually fly one of these things. At least Ican go longer between bad crashes now. But it is nice to be able to go complete battery charges and not crash or have a hard landing. Its true... practice, practice, practice. I do not believe the thoery about lots of practice on your FMS simulator helps that much. I can fly the dragonfly sim inverted, around land, take off, and not crash. The sim is way too easy, even with advanced variables going. ANyway.... My Walkera 36 hoovers yell and is also stable. But I am not ready for it yet.

RE: Still looking for parts diagram for a 36
SUCCESS....... For you 36-z owners withthe two tail rotor blade holder bearings, order part number 35 022. Blade holders. The tail axiz end is reduced and you will not need th second bearing. Or order the bearing kit for the 36-z.

RE: Still looking for parts diagram for a 36
Well apparently I have the 36-z model. The guys at RC and Me knew exactly what I needed. Looks like they deal only in the Walkera products. I was able to order what I needed. If you have a Walkera. wont hurt to go look on their site. Prices arent that bad either. [link=http://www.rcandme.com/servlet/StoreFront]RC and Me[/link] Thanks...... Bubba Pate Tonopah Nevada

RE: Plasti-Blade for BCP came in today WooHoo!!
Been dinking with the micro helos for a while, did the park flyer stuff for a few years. Still a novice in Helos. But I purchased the Blade CP after I got the Blade CX. Both are good products. I have 9 micros and only one of them is a complete piece of crap. BUT, I stumbled on to JCS Hobbies, talked to and emailed John quite a few times about his plastic blades. I bought some and here are my results. My Blade CP. Stock 10t motor and Nimh battery. Stock flat bottom woody blades did fine. JCS plastic blades I am sorry to say it did not have much lift. I lightly sanded the leading edge to get the razor edge off and that helped a little. That was in FP mode and CP mode. It would fly but thats about it. No altitude at all. I had orderd the 11v lipos and 9t motor but had not taken them out of the plastic bags yet. So what the heck. I broke one of the lipos out today, charged it, slapped it on the CP and WOW with the plastic blades it screams and flies like a bat out of hell. I am not really interested to fly upside down and land on the ceiling or any of that stuff. I have two very large indoor places I normally fly. (winter here now like most places) Anyway, the plastic blades from JCS are well made, John did his homework on them. They are extremely durable. I clipped a fertilizer bag today and it put 2 slices into the bag and never wiggled. DO NOT let it run into you unless you like pain. The plastic blades are perfect for the fliers like me. Still learning, bumping into things (I'm old and the depth perception aint what it used to be), and I'm not into the aerobatics yet. I think with the 9t motor and 11v lipo you could probably roll it if you are good and have the altitude to recover. But remember its a flat bottom blade. I am sure if you tried hard enough you could trash a set of them... but I dont think there would be much left of the CP by then. Anyway thats my 2 cents worth, the plastic blades are great for beginners like me because those woody blades break and chip if you just look at them hard.
