I ordered the heli/remote on the weekend. After the order sitting in processing status since then. I wanted to take the helicopter to great grandma's to show Derek, so I called them today. I asked how long it normally takes and they saids someone would look into it, after taking all my information. Well about two hours after that FedEX arrived at the door. It's HERE!

I briefly tried to fly it. Well hit the ceiling on the first attempt. Seems that all the servos and linkage were sticky, and it's way more sensitive than the e-flight. After a bit of type I've managed to work everything out but WOW it's way way more sensitive than the e-flight mCX. I haven't been able to get even close to full throttle. I keep running out of room. Also the tail moves slow but that could just be the gyro sensitivity.

I also just tried using the remote with my Novus FP. ARRR, the controls are backwards. I pulled the cover off on the two remotes. Sure enough they have different dip switch settings. Looks like I'm going to have to re-program for each heli. Novus CX is 1-ON, 2-ON, 3-OFF, 4-ON and the Novus FP is 1-ON, 2-OFF, 3-OFF, 4-OFF.

Well off to flying.
