Microheli CNC Main Frame |

This is my first experiance with Microheli.
Bought this because i was tired of buying CX2 frame sets. I kept shearing the tailboom mount off in violent crashes.
Fit was poor compared to other brands of CX2 parts. I had to shave the mast hole and the aft mount on the carbon plate to assemble the frame correctly. Feels heavy too for alum/fiber parts.(My digital scale is broke)
Performance IS AWESOME!
SMOOTH FLIGHT, BETTER CONTROL and QUIET!
Way better flight charastics than the e-flite parts.
We'll see on the durability.......haven't had any gnarley crashes since it flies so much better now.
4-Stars because of the poor fit/quality.
Extreme: Wake up and make this part better/lighter.

Unexpected Improvements |

I upgraded to the aluminum frame for "crash resistance," but I wasn't expecting further performance improvements. Due to the stronger frame and the tighter, more precise, shaft mount & bearings, the "noise" of the gears is so much less that I dare say there's a performance gain due to the reduced friction.
Since it's aluminum there's no "give" like in the stock plastic frame, so the motors are also mounted more securely with less vibration.
I did have a little difficulty getting the shaft mount screwed onto the main plate, as the shaft hole was drilled a little too small. But after "trimming" the hole out with a hobby knife I got a perfect fit. For those who encounter that same problem, I advise trimming the hole out with a hobby knife rather then trying to drill it out with a drill bit or a demel tool, as you'll get a better and tighter fit by "sanding" the aluminum away.
Note: I purchased this product elsewhere, combining it with another order to save on shipping.
