Maiden:
She is as stable as the Co-axel... nice and easy on the throttle, get her a good 12 inches off the deck to get out of ground effect. No trim was required. She is a little soft on the response out of the box on my DX6i but thats a good thing cause she does move once you get her going in a direction.
Report Card:
ROG: Easy and relaxing
Speed: 4-5 mph forward speed,
Landing: Easy, lands like a trainer
Beginner: Nice first non-co-axel
Summary:
Beautiful heli, she simply looks amazing in the air and the color scheme maintains orientation with ease. She hovers well and handles forward flight easily and can move slow or fast. I had very little tail drift and that was as the lipo ran down. I noticed very little drop in altitude as you transitioned into forward flight so a little increase in power helps. My DX6i still has the "clicks" on the throttle stick so I had to bounce a little between 2 spots at higher throttle settings to keep from climbing. If you dont use your TX for planes, remove the clicker and you will find it very easy to maintain altitude. (not that it was hard even with the clicker)
