Hope I'm not being picky here but...

The new Rex 700 tail rotor is the wrong way round, it's going anti-clockwise, but the blades are set up to run clockwise....

[steelie600]

Yeah, but look at the actual blades, they look as though they're on back to front? Sorry, I was tired when I typed it so it wasn't clear what I meant.

Have you seen the Align press release?

There was an error at the factory with the early kits, they were missing 5cm off the boom.

I'd get on to them and ask for the new boom.

His right you know when looking at the heli from the right side the tail rotor, it rotates anti-clockwise but the blades are on the wrong way,
the leading edge is facing clockwise.

Well spotted John and Dave.

I looked last night after seeing this post and couldn't see anything wrong. Troubled by this oversight I'm now just going to check my real heli to make sure they're on the right the way.
