Hi Paul. Since getting back into helis with the Blade MCPX I have been looking around at the 450 size. The vids I have seen of the Blade 450 look very nice, unfortunately I have not got one, but will be interested to hear your views.

Update had two more nice hovers/forwards n bk, Iv been useing my old lipos i used in the edf n im geting about 4-4:30mins each lipo but when i land after this time my lipos have swelled a little n become quite warm! Like i say iv used them in my edf n got them hot n puffy :-( so have i messed them up? One is a year old n the other is 3months.. My newest one i charged yesterday n was still charging after 100mins!my amps went from 0.01a bk up to 0.27a and usally stops at 0.01a after 48mins?? I stoped it in the end! Then charged my older one right after n it charged n stoped after 42mins...i dont understand what it was doing!!

High pressure moving up from the Azores on Thursday, Paulie!
Isobars wide apart = light winds!
Everything tightly crossed for better flying conditions . . .
