I got the anti crash kit from xheil, and either I'm just an idiot or it is totally not compatible with the HB FP V2. It simply WILL NOT square up on the landing gear, no matter what I do. Can anyone offer any insight into this? Am I dong something wrong? I know I have it put together correctly. It matches with the photo on the website, but it does not fit on the landing gear like the the picture.

Use zip ties to secure rods on the skids and then connect them all to the hub (where all rods should attach)

normally you can find a way to ziptie them to the skids so that they don't move, you may have to use a few zipties for this but there isn't too many ways to keep them on

It won't square up but the rods are flexible enough to get them in place. It's great for sliding around on smooth surfaces but it can't absorb too many hard landings.

FYI, If they break, you can cut them down smaller and reuse it. Make sure you tape where you'll be cutting so it doesn't splinter. A dremel works great.

I'm glad I wasn't the only one who couldn't figure this out at first! Went through a couple of sets of zip ties until I figured out a way to secure it.

they really should include some sort of picture though.

put the balls together on the center hub. Set heli on top of it. centered and level. Put zip tie around the fiber rod, cross the vertical and horixontal part of your skid. Pull almost tight. do all 4. have some one hold heli steady, centered and level. Pull zip ties tight. I have a photo, but i can't get it to post on here. My e-mail is ccowboyearl01@yahoo.com. Send me yours and i'll foward a photo.
