    I am cursed I tell you. I can fly any helicopter no problem, but as soon as i put a pair of Edge blades on them something happens! Either something mechanical fails or I dumb thumb. Does anyone else have some sort of strange vodoo stuff happen with a particular piece of helicopter equipment?

      Hmm, beastx seems to be my vodoo, had one crashed that heli 2nd flight, decided I'd give it another shot, almost crash 3x in a 30sec hover... Going to keep persisting however and get this thing working

      Torque tubes! I've installed a torque tube conversion on my 500 3 times and each time within a few flights I crash. Only one was the fault of the torque tube (well, fault of the installer) but I won't install one again!

      My fingers... Every time they touch the sticks I either crash or get close to it ;)

      3GX, spent a year and a ton of blades and shafts trying to sort that one out. Tune-fly-tweak-repeat. Never did fly prefect. I would get the cyclic dialed, and the tail would give problems. Got the tail locked and it would lay over on spool-up. Went v-bar, and never looked back. I stripped the 3gx off of all of my Helis and sold them. Now every heli I own hasa v-bar on it except for my 600n flybar. Ama I have the fbl head and v-bar for it. I just need the time for the conversion
