    Huh? Align give those away with their 3g conversions? (or you can buy them for about £5).

      There £6 from this site, if i had known about these it would have saved me £35 digital pitch gauge and £12 for a pitch gauge to adapt to fit the digital gauge on.
      Align might give them iaway n there conversion kits but not in there heli kits and how many people are using there conversion kits now anyway, not even 1% of all flyers.
      There is a thread on pitch gauges for fbl here and no one mentions this device,read it http://www.rcheliaddict.co.uk/main-d...tch-gauge.html

        You dont even need a pitch gauge.. fold the blades to one side and they should both be central at 0 pitch, then set your pitch with a calculation of the blade length and how far apart the blades tips go at top and bottom stick..

        Here's a pitch calculator: Pitch Calc.zip

          Put a spirit level "bubble" on top of the head and one on your pitch gauge then you know where 0 degrees is, that costs next to nothing.
