Flying with my 2months old blade 400

5 inches of rain today in Duncanville,TX

Practicing with my Blade 400. It was a bit breezy, making it more difficult.

Somehow, I find it more difficult to pivot counter-clockwise than clockwise. I’m really sure why. I think it has to do with the main rotor turning clockwise, and the tail rotor countering the torque. Hopefully, when I return to the faster head speed setup, it will more stable. Anyway, here’s me practicing some forward flight and left hand pivots.

I’ve started getting bored with just hovering. So, this week I decided to attempt a little forward flight. Slowly at first but gradually getting faster. A feathering shaft, a pair of main blades, a main blade holder, and a horizontal tail fin holder later, I was starting to get the hang of it. Or so I thought…

In this video as interpreted by STORMRANGER6 I will fly my new stock Blade 400 (BladeRunner) for the first time. Video editing was done by my fellow R/C enthusiast STORMRANGER6. I will have another video soon with BladeRunner upgrated to GY401 GYRO, 450V2 Tail and Futaba Tail Servo……….
