I have had mine for a couple of days now....had about 20 flights..hovers with it...I am finding that sometimes when flying around the bedroom I am at full stick one way on the cyclic control before I get the model to respond and still need more...so I have noticed that the swash control arm to the belcrank is in the inner hole....I may move this one hole out to make it a bit more responsive when I need it to be.I am using the stock 800mah li-po and also some of my flightpower 1200mah li-pos all o.k.I shall be tryin it in flight as soon as the wind totaly dies down outside..seems to have plenty of yaw power for piroettes...the wheels work good for rolling into flight...looks great in the air..at the moment I cant leave it alone.

Parts???

Hey guys, I got one of these but didn't check on parts supplier first and now I can't find any in the US yet and was wondering where you guys are getting your parts.???? I need both main shafts inner and outer, 4 total and some blades but I found out the Eflite CX blades will work along with the rotor hubs but the Cx shafts are too short. Anybody have these parts or where I can get them??? I tried G Hobbies in Canada but they were not able to ship to the US, Exclusive rights??? Thanks

Hi,
Has anyone out there experienced any sort of power glitches as I would call them or surges? I will being flying along and the heli surges or twitches. I also have been flying and the heli drops to the floor or ground. I would say they are power surges. The motors just shut right off for a second or two. I have already returned 1 skylift because the esc fried in mid air. I was hoping to have been luck with the second one. I don't know what is causing the twitches, glitches, and or power surges. Anyone have any ideas? or experiencing the same problems?

I have not had any power glitches with mine, however, I did loose my rudder control! Now, when you put in right T/R control there is no input to the flight controls, instead the motor speeds up! Try figuring that one out! Hobby Lobby has issued me an RMA to send it back and get a new one! This one worked perfectly for about a month!

Hi,
Has anyone converted their skylift to 2.4GHz? If so how did you do it? I did mine, but since have switched back.

2.4Ghz Twister Skylift

I tried the 2.4 swap using a Spektrum DX6i and AR6100E. Throttle and cyclic all worked fine but I had no yaw control, so I figured I fried the 3-in-1. But I swapped back to the analog radio and everything works fine. I also tried using the controller from a Blade CX2 but still no yaw. Anyone have any ideas?
