        I learnt by watching videos. Oddly enough the Blade video on youtube for 450 mechanical set-up was very useful as he described it very well as he did it. Finless Bob is great too.

        Essential tools would be a swashplate levelling tool. I buy mine as they're only about £6, others use allen keys and ties wraps. Each to there own and a pitch gauge. I found the ordinary ones difficult to use because there are three focus zones to my eyesight which makes it hard for me to see close up and focus on something a little further behind. Rather than struggle and not be sure I got a digital pitch gauge, absolutely fabulous.

        Eyesight, unaided 12 to 18". Half strength glasses 18" to 3 feet. Main distance glasses 3' to infinity.

        I told my optician I had trouble seeing things far away. He dragged me outside and said "Look up, what do you see?"
        "The sun," I said.
        "Well," said the optician, "if you can see 96 million miles what the bloody hell are complaining about?"
