A little too expensive I think for what you really get. Just my opinion. It does look cool.

RE: OFFICIAL Team Losi Micro-T thread !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
[quote]ORIGINAL: harrier I want longer run times out of my Micro-T and saw that a 7.4 180 mah 2-cell Lipo option is available.  Can I swap the stock NiMH with the Lipo without replacing the ESC, motor, etc or was the Lipo option meant to be used in conjunction with the brushless?   [/quote] The most effective thing I did for longer run times was to get the ball bearing kit. If you don't already have that, get it. Also, if you're running the brushless ESC you might have trouble with the NiMH because of the LiPo cut off. I can't seem to run both anyway, but maybe others have had good luck. On another note, I just finished up a classic hauler body. It fits fine with a full size FASST receiver under it and I think it looks pretty cool.

RE: NEW! E-Flite Blade Micro CX
OK...I've been struggling for months now trying to figure this out. I've replaced every piece of this MCX, even the motors, but I still the the following: When I throttle anywhere from 3/4 to full, it will not pirouette right. It just keeps spinning left, and it is not a trim issue. I also have two tenergy 1.3's and a stock eflight battery, so I'm pretty sure it's not the batteries, although the problem does get worse when it's low on juice. I am at a total loss. Anyone have any suggestions?

It's the wrong thing to do because it ruins the scale appearance of the SCT class.

RE: NEW! E-Flite Blade Micro CX
[quote]ORIGINAL: mydartswinger Make sure that you're flybar weights are at an equal distance from the main shaft. Sometimes one of them will slide in a hair and throw it off balance. Did you check BOTH main shafts? There is an inner and an outer shaft. If you replaced one, but not the other, your problem could be with the one that you didn't replace. Chipped or cracked blades can cause it as well. Also check the alignment of your main gears. Sometimes they can get at an angle and cause the TBE. The TX batteries should have nothing to do with the TBE. If you're still running the included AA's, you should change them to better ones regardless of an issue with the heli. The ones included are junk. [/quote] Thanks...I'll get into it again. Now that you mention it, I think it is my gears. I've had a very hard time "truing" these up. Thanks again!

RE: NEW! E-Flite Blade Micro CX
[quote]ORIGINAL: SCVJeff I just want mine to fly farther than 20' in the straight line before dropping to a crawl. Whats the secret? [/quote] I've noticed that if you feather the throttle a bit while in forward flight it will help you maintain a decent amount of speed. On another note...I seem to be getting a "toilet bowl" effect when hovering. It used to hover perfectly, so I replaced the main shaft, the fly bar, and I assembled the full glow in the dark kit. It still seems to have the problem. I've noticed a few people suggesting changing the TX batteries. Will this possible solve my problem? Thanks,
