  • Cambridgeshire help required.

    My head hurts!!

    I have recently finished building my first CP heli, an Outrage G5. The build went fairly well and I think it is mechanically close to where it needs to be.

    My headaches are coming from setting up pitches, tracking, tx, gyro, well everything really that gets easier with experience (of which I have none).

    I am appealing to any kind flyer who is in my area who could offer me some face to face help in getting this bird in the air.

    I have had a CX2 for a year and stupidly bought RF G4 before I found out about Phoenix, so I have a little basic flight experience although when I have the Outrage light on the skids I am not too proud to admit it scares the bejeezus out of me.

    The setup I am having problems with is as follows:

    Outrage G5
    Spektrum DX7 & 6200
    Hobbywing ESC
    Gy401 & S9257

    I have beer and will travel

    Thanks in anticipation.

    If you want help I'm willing to lend a hand if you like....

      Hi Matt
      Welcome to the forum... my Blade 400 scared me witless when I started with it. now it only scares me when its coming towards me!!

      Good idea getting some help though - makes it a lot easier!

      All the best

                Bloody hell, this has been dragged up from the depts.

                Be kinda cool to have a Fenland meet up every so often for a flying session, as I know of two others who live in the general area
