  • Another guy like me?

    Am browing videos on YouTube to see if other people are suffering the same as me.

    [ame]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lIgT1PFr8Dk[/ame]

    This guy seems to be in the same boat. But it seems his gyro isn't working, right? Surely the nose should stay pointed one way?

    This guy aint having any trouble

    Your other guy seems to need spend some more time on heli setup especially the tail.

          Not that I dis-agree, but I'm sure JK knows what he's doing...

            I was just hoping that a big american style semi-truck would come steaming down the road and swat it like a fly - serves him right for doing 3d on a public road...

              Silicone spray (or even "Mr Sheen" or "Pledge") is better than WD40 - the oil in WD40 will eventually eat the belt.

              Wasn't that an auto at the end of the flight?

                  Thats the stuff. its the silicone in it that does the lubrication.

                  you can get tins of silicone from hardware or curtain shops. its userd alot on curtain tracks.

                  The only thing you need to watchout for is you can get a buildup which isnt verygood so from time to time give it a good clean and reapply

                    In the good old days we only had Futaba 154's with no head hold. The tail would wander around and you had to control it yourself

                    Arhh, the youff of today

                      When I origionaly learnt there were no such things as these new fangled gyro thingys.

                      Then they came onto the market, cost a fortune weighed a ton and went through batteries very quickly but you did get a nice noise as the gyro span up haha
