I just got a blde cp pro 2 and my question is that the flybar does not float freely, has a little drag to it... not tight but if i move it it stops as soon as i quit moving it... is this normal?

My tail fin also fibrates a good amount

It is new only flown 2 times....

On my t-rex it is very free....

Thanks much for any help

My Cp Pro does have some drag on the flybar. More drag than my 450. It doesn't seem to stick. Definitely does not float freely like the 450. I think you'll be ok though. I noticed that the plastic head parts on the cp pro do have some friction in them from time to time.
The tail fin vibs I get too. I run bearings for dampeners and this does throw some vibes through the airframe. My skids do vibrate to a blur as well.

mine is pretty free being the blade cp is cheap plastic all around im sure it can vary but i just hooked up mine to my dx7 got everything trimmed out and fly great for what it is if there is slight drag i would imagine it will still fly fine just mabey a little slower on the cyclic

Mabey one day i will actually land one of these things !!

What a drag

It's probably a result of those crummy plastic balls.

Love my CP, hate the balls.

perfection is the death of creation

Ya, now that I gotta good crash under my belt on it, and rebuilt it myself, it actually flys better...go figure... quality control is not perfect on these... my first pro 2 was nicer flying than this one....

I had a pretty good vibration on this one from day one... well on my crash I took out the shaft on the rear motor.. when taking the rear apart I found the prop adaptor was kinda fudged up at the factory... put a whole new rear end on it, and the vibe is gone...
crazy stuff.....

Thanks for all the help guys, and gals...
