any one remember this. I would love to find one. this is what I learned to fly on. I used paint stir sticks and made my own blades. thing flew like a brick but it taught me a lot about flying and fixing. When I moved to align 450 it was like self flying machine compared to the CP. good times. Any one else fly one of these?
I still havent gotten my Buddy flying because the tail is not working properly. The pitch slider slides fine when on the tail spindle, but once attached to the blade grip ball links, the whole assembly gets very stiff. Especially as it nears the tail boom (inconsistent tightness). I've changed the spindle, thrust bearings and all the spacers and still, I connect the pitch slider and it gets all stiff. Any tips with what I should do?? I'm really running out of ideas and my frustration levels are rising.
The way I know its a problem is because during setup of the ikon, when the tail pitch slider went inward, the servo would start buzzing. Upon further inspection I found out it is very stiff and gets stiffer as it goes inward.
