Thanks Rodney.
With a fixed pitch heli there aren't too many things that can go wrong to cause that problem. In the video there obviously isn't enough lift to get the heli off of the ground. The only real problems that can cause this is either not enough pitch or not enough headspeed. In the video, the headspeed seemed ok which leads me to believe that it has to be a pitch issue. That's why I thought that maybe someone accidentally put the wrong type of blades on it. Unless he is using a programmable TX and has some crazy throttle and/or pitch curves.
Hey Phil, I know that Blade makes a set of 8° blades for the 200srx. Try those and see if that solves your problem. You said the blades are damaged so either way it won't be wasted money and at least you will be sure that you have the correct blades on the heli. I don't remember exactly where I saw them at this moment, but I'll see if I can find them and post a link to them for you.
If you have any other progress, please let us know.

Hey Phil, I found those 8 degree blades I was telling you about. They're made by Xtreme Productions and are a reasonable price. Here is the link:

Try them out and see if they help, but also make sure you have the correct throttle and pitch curves programmed in your TX.
Good luck and let us know how things are going.
