| It is a dying tail motor and the reason you didn't have the problem before is the new main motor is producing more power, so more torque.

| That's an easy one. CP2s can't be upgraded. None of the ESky helicopters can be upgraded and none of them are worth wasting money on. If you're lucky you'll get a good one. Flip a coin.
