If, after the first few flights, you would prefer to have even quicker and more aggressive cyclic response, you can
reposition the flybar weights so that they are closer in to the head/main shaft on the flybar . It is usually best to
move the weights in only a small distance at a time before making each subsequent test flight, until you find the
position at which you prefer the cyclic response most .
Note: It is important that the weight(s) on each side of the flybar be positioned at a distance equal
from the head/main shaft in order to prevent imbalance that could lead to vibration in the rotor head.
Dampening of the rotor head (main rotor blades) can also be adjusted in order to fine-tune the cyclic response of
your model . In general, stiffer dampening will result in quicker cyclic response . The dampening of your Blade CP
Pro 2 has been set to provide a good balance of cyclic response and stability right out of the box, and we suggest
that you make your first flights with this amount of dampening before making any changes .
If, after the first few flights, you would prefer to have even quicker and more aggressive cyclic response, you
can stiffen the rotor head dampening by adding shims between the o-ring and step washer on each side of the
center hub (see the “Exploded View” drawing and parts listing for reference) . Head dampening shims are available
separately in packs of eight (EFLH1144), however, you should install only one shim per side at a time before
making each subsequent test flight, until you find the dampening at which you prefer the cyclic response (and
stability) most .
Note: You must always install an equal number of shims on each side of the center hub.
Note: If you install too many shims, and the dampening becomes too stiff, the helicopter can wobble
and shake in flight. Take care when making test flights after adding shims to prevent crashing the
model as a result of a wobble or shake. Typically, we find that using 2–3 shims per side with the
stock high-power 370 brushed main motor works well. More shims per side can cause the wobble
and shake. If running a power system that is capable of producing higher rotor head speeds, like
the optional 370 brushless motor power system, you can sometimes add even more shims before
encountering the wobble and shake. Again, exercise extreme care when test flying the model after
adding shims.
Channel 5 Knob
The HP6DSM transmitter is equipped with an optional-use Channel 5 knob (CH 5) located on the forward top right
panel, next to the Dual Rate switch .
This knob allows you to control function of the transmitter’s 5th channel . And while this channel remains un-used
for flying the Blade CP Pro 2, it is available for use in controlling a variety of potential optional features including
actuation of a servo, electronic components or even for setting the gain of a gyro remotely from the transmitter . It
allows fully proportional control of the 5th channel from approximately 0–100% travel.
And although servo reversing is available for this channel, the knob can be operated in either direction for control .
You can use either the most clockwise (+) or most counterclockwise (-) position for 0 or 100% travel, and you
will achieve approximately 50% travel with the knob in the middle position, pointing directly to the rear of the
transmitter .
