Hey all, been a while since ive been on (out of the country, got married)
Got back to tinkering with the bee last night and I cannot get the main blades to track at all. At speed, they are 1/4" apart and no amount of bending got them closer. I took the whole blade+holder assembly apart and nothing appears damaged. These are my original blades (actually, everything is still original) and they have had their share of crashes. is it just time for new blades?
Look which blade is working higher. Then you can warm it up with a hair dryer (not must) and twist it counter clockwise.And you can do that till you have perfect tracking . Hope it helps

Yes...those plastic blades are impossible to track if they are warm even a little. Get yourself a pair of wooden blades. Got mine from USHobby and they track right on the money.

I didn't do any upgrades. I think it is a bit more stable with the wooden blades. I suppose you could upgrade the main motor, but then you would have to upgrade the tail motor as I doubt it would be able to keep up.
