Hello everyone. I'm new to this forum and relatively new to RC helicopters. In a matter of about a month, I have gone from a cheap shopping mall co-axial heli to a fixed pitch Blade 120SR, and I'm now the proud owner of a Blade 130X collective pitch heli. I haven't tried it out yet although I did set it up, bind it to my DX6i, and throttled it up until it was almost airborne.
I'm a little scared to get it into the air as I have smacked my 120 SR around pretty good until the canopy is held together with duct tape, and I've replaced broken landing skids, main blades, tail rotor motor, and tail rotor. I think I'll do a little more practicing on the flight simulator before I put my 130X into the air.

 to the forum Michael,
You've got the right idea about the sim, can't beat some good solid hand-eye co-ordination.
Good luck with the maiden flight. 
Tom. |
