RC Aerodyne’s new 800 size Bell 222’s and MD500E’s are now released and available. The new True Scale helicopter puts the cockpit in the correct place for that scale look. All of the mechanics are also in the engine compartments to leave room in the front. This allows you to completely detail the helicopters to the truest scale factor you desire.

Choices of color scheme with the MD500e comes in 4 bright colors. Red,...

Ok @The Dude has created write up on how to dial out interactions for the futaba cgy 750. http://www.heligods.com/threads/cgy-750-dialing-out-interactions.1804/ My question is does anybody actually do this with any other gyro? Apparently according to Brett D, there is big improvements in accuracy to be had by making sure the interactions are nullified at +ve and -ve pitch. And interactions vary from model to model.

So check your interactions using the above link for details.

Do you actually dial them out? Does your gyro allow you to dial them out.....
Dear Heli Brethren.

How often do you frequent your sacred heli field/club and end up piking out because....

  • Its too windy
  • Its too hot
  • Its too cold
  • I have a hangover

Well Heli-Brethren i take it upon myself to try and educate you somewhat. Every minute you spend at the heli-field not flying is another precious flying minute lost. Sure its fine to take breaks in between flights - but for heligod fathers sake please at least attempt to fly at least once.... You wont regret it as another flight had is another flight you may never have had. So please next time...

Set Up Steps:

Before you start, you really need a dial indicator to do this right, with a sleeve that slips down over the main shaft and sits on top of the swash ball, so you can sit the leaver of the dial indicator on the top of the sleeve. Then viewing the dial indicator window, you can dial out the interactions. Some people also mark the shaft with a marker, but it's not as accurate and gets very messy very quick.

1. Enter the Swash Menu and go to NTR This locks the model's servo in exact neutral

2. Locate the mounting point for each ball link on the servo driving the swashplate at...
