One other tip if it hasn't been mentioned before is to loosen the antenna wire off (ie. unwind it a bit) of the canopy pin. My first 3-in-1 had to be replaced because the antenna's solder joint got yanked around too much with each (oops) crash. Never had that problem with my mCPX, but the Nano's wire seems really snug from the board to the canopy pin.... there's no give.

Cheers,

Horizon Hobby (HH) are sending me a new motor. Mine died in the second week. HH say that you should not run consecutive batteries through it. Rather give it a chance to cool down between flights; they say 15 minutes.

Puts a damper on it

I bent the feathering shaft, dented the main blades and broke a servo gear in half the landing gear was already broken from a few crashes earlier. No other heli I've had has taken so much abuse and was still able to fly.
