  • Rotorscale 470 Bell shakes badly

    Just received and did the Maiden Flight Today in GPS mode and upon spool up at rpm apogee, the heli almost shakes to pieces. The blade tension is adjusted as per motionrc videos. Upon liftoff, its not as apparant as its absorbing more and not beating against the ground, but its still there. The blades only mismatch by .03 Grams and cg is real close. The grips are tight. Is new feathering shaft and grips the next thing? Thank You.

    UPDATE: I had spare blades so put them on and it’s better; not gone, but better. Gonna try some aftermarket blades, I don’t think these stock ones are crafted very good.
