Learn to Fly 3d RC Helicopters

What is in approximately 50% of all helicopters.

And will also have a high probability of happening to you if you hang around king street at 3am on a sunday morning or kings cross street.

What am I ?
Ok thank you @ArgyPak for guessing the first riddle forcing me to make a harder one.

What is found on most helicopters - it is critical.
and part of me is sometimes a curse

what am I

So just wondering. What is the hardest trick to perform and who can do it? Is it the piroflip, is it the chaos?
Question? Riddle Of The Day
Hello my heli-minions.... I have a riddle for you.

I am on your helicopter
and also in every rain forest in the world...

What am I ????
Okay servo direct to swash seems to be the go nowdays.

But i understand there are geometry issues... Now you can dial these interaction issues out with certain gyros, but i have heard that you can ony have proper geometry if you use a bell crank system.

Nick Maxwell talks about the thunder tiger having perfect geometry. My question is... does it really matter? Or is that one of the reasons why Nick flys so well? This also applies to the rush 750.

So is it marketing hype or does this really matter?
I have seen a few different tail setups in the past. So i am wondering what is the absolute best performing tail system out there.

The new Align tail system looks good.

There there is the Heneselit tail system

Vortex Tail System

Alees Rush 750

So are there any other unique designs you can think of and which system is the superior one?
JR PROPO Relased for Radios XG11/XG11MV & XG8 New Software Update:
[​IMG]


Update time for the JR XG11 and XG8 radios, added features to help in all aspects of the hobby. Be sure to save the models data on the SD card before updating software, as it will initialize the transmitter completely. After update, you can reload your personal setting back with the SD card. Like nothings changed, except the new features :).

  1. XG11/XG11MV Update Software Ver.0002-0012
  2. XG8...
Hi guys, let me know if you've any of the above.

Thanks

Argy
As my flying progresses, i want more out of my helicopter and gyro. I try out most stuff on my stretch mini protos and use the cgy750 which has been a great gyro for holding control through fast manouvers. However I find that through certain maneuvers I tend to blow through - ie the helicopter moves very fast, i perform a snapturn at full speed and the helicopter still has some hysteresis - ie the heli pushes through the maneuver when i try to change direction suddenly. This also applies to fast tick tocks. Makes it an absolute pain to try and deliver precision through fast transition....
