I got tired of not flying anything. So I decided to go out and fly my mCP X. Stupid thing would not fly. The bearing kept coming out of the swash and I didn't know why. So a quick google search turned up a page with someone having the same issue. Turns out, his heli had a cracked swash. Mine was cracked exactly like his. So I disassembled the head and removed the swash to try to glue it back. I used Loctite 435 while the bearing was assembled in the swash as it cannot be installed after gluing or it will simply crack it again. I glued the crack and also applied some to the outside of the break. After a few minutes I used a toothpick to apply some to the outer race on the bearing in a couple places. So, after re-assembling the heli, I headed outside to fly it. It works great now. No bearing popping out. I had a good flight and decided to go again. This time I took my action camera with me to try my hand at that. Man I should have recorded my first flight. LOL! Stupid trees...stupid pilot...LOL!!!!!
