What setup?

Hey guys,

I got the Super Landing Gear v2 and the flat-bottom Plasti-Blades from helidirect a few days ago for my Blade CP. I noticed that with the plasti-blades installed w/ the stock landing gear, it's not producing enough lift, no matter what the pitch, to lift more than a few feet off the ground at full throttle.

With the super landing gear (about 20 grams heavier than stock) AND the plasti-blades installed, the heli barely lifts more than a few inches off the ground at full throttle.

So I figure it's the motor pinion/battery combo that's not giving enough headspeed to produce enough lift to have the heli preform well (be able to fly high and do FF) My aim is to have the Super Landing Gear as well as the Plasti-Blades installed to fly with, and I'm going to purchase the E-Power 1300mah Li-Po + charger from Helidirect.

Would the Li-Po solve my problems? Also, with the Li-Po and heavier landing gear/main blades what size pinion should I use on the motor for best preformance?

Thanks a bunch,
-Dave
