    Is there any trick for getting the screws started in the feathering shaft? I spent over an hour yesterday trying to do this. The screws are microscopic and hard for me to see. Also, I put some Lynx blades on and they appear to be slightly longer than the stock blades. Will I have tail issues while using the new blades? TIA for any help.

      I generally dab a very tiny amount of CA on the screw driver, and then put the screw on the driver. It holds the screw in place long enough to start it in the end of the shaft. It works well for me, so you might give that a try. Hope this helps. :)

      Can`t help with the blades, because I still have the stock ones on mine. :)

      I also have a magnitizer/de-magnitiser that helps keep it in... also hold the screw vertically and still and move the mcpx to it ...

      I think I have a demagnetizer somewhere. Thanks for the suggestions. I'll let you know how it fares with the upgraded blades.

      Well, I went to the Lagoon FF today and it was blowing a gale. Didn't even try to put anything up in the air. Freaking wind!
