couple of newby nitro questions

[dieselcarb]

hi there i am picking up my new 600 pro nitro tomos and just wanted a few pointers on things

heads are they all compatable from version to version and is the electric head the same

glow plugs what do u use? my heli is coming with an os hyper 50 ringed i believe and some opti 12 fuel i may give this away and just use opti 20 or what ever 20 nitro

ive read that quk clutch is a good 1 so i will get 1 after i run engine in

is there any other points that could idearly need modding for improvement or is it solid out the box

thanks for any help

cheers terry

oh yeah b4 i forget how long would you run a plug b4 changing?

Hi Terry
i live in Hatfield not too far from you
OS hyper 50 i use a OS No8 plug in mine only change it when it gave me issus
which heli are you buy the standard clutch shout be fine (what stage are you at on flying )
opt fuel 12% is ok again at what stage is your flying if you are learning that fine
hope this helps you

im new to flyin so probly wont fly this till mid summer so would rather some 1 else have it u interested? also dont suppose u fancy giving me a hand with putting radio in as i only know how to set my 450 UP

cheaky i know but if you dont ask

but thats great i buy some spare plugs nothing worse than a dead plug just wanted a reliable 1 os 8s it is then

Whot are you a fair weather flyer you need to get out now and get some stick time in
i can help you set it up if you need help only good on futaba radio others take me a bit more time

i was out in the ice other week but to be honest only done 9 4 min flights on 450 and 2 of those were proper round the field but i probly binnit on next flight
also i got an aurora 9 easy to use (if u know what half the stuff does lol)but i will probly just hover this 1 for break in and carry on with the 450 in the cold

[dieselcarb]

i re fraise that i have no intention of flying this 600 till mid summer and then that will just be hovering for run in also is a govenor a must as its not got 1 cheers oh and its been blinged out with ally any reason against using the plastic bits as i probly bend it b4 3d thanks terry and thanks nick if you read this shes a beauty

[NoFixedAbode]

Good choice, you will probably find easier to hover, as it is bigger and more stable than 450. No need for a governor at this stage. Don't get sucked in with bling, not needed. Fuel is ok I run opti 20% and enya #3 prefer these to os #8. IMO you should not wait for summer, just go out and do a couple of tanks whenever you have the spare time, come summer you will be doing circuits(or better circuits than you are now).

Sweet i look into them plugs also i got the aurora 9 by hitec do you think its a good idea to use the optima 9 rx instead of the optima 7 as it has 2 boda arials instead of 1 thanks terry

... do you think its a good idea to use the optima 9 rx instead of the optima 7 as it has 2 boda arials instead of 1

I wouldn't worry about the 7 only having one antenna, it is all it really needs.

The only reason I'd consider a 9 is that the 7 can be a little tricky to locate and get neat wiring with due to having servo connections at both ends.

[dieselcarb]

its a pain in the arse for that the 7 init lol worked out ok on my 450 i try stick my spare 1 on if i dont like itthen i may consider the 9 but if the 7 works wiv no probs i have 1 cheers
