Model Forum / Radio Controlled / Helicopters / August 2003

I was looking for a blade balancer ... someone recommended the Hi-Point
ones but I can't seem to find a reseller for them over the net.
Heliproz recommended the KSJ balancer just want to bounce it off everyone
here

Anyone any advice on what to buy and where to buy Lithium Poly battery packs
in the UK????
Could do with someone who talks through there mouth rather than any other
body orifice for advice.

Im moving up to 60's and i would like to ask if the 3 needles are low,mid and
high settings on the throttle stick? Is the motor easy to tune?
Thanks, Michael

Have any of you experiences with the simulator CSM
(http://www.rcmodels.org/csm/)? I don't care about fancy graphics - what I
do care about is "close to real life simulation".
What would you recommend?

I have recently purchased a Dragonfly without transmitter. The Dragonfly
does use PCM...
The guy supplied me with a 35.180MHz TX crystal to match the one on the (all
singing and dancing) receiver/controller board.

Some years ago I flew Concepts etc but then gave it a rest for a few years.
Just got back into helis with an ECO 8 electric heli.
I can fly the blades off it now and am starting to consider something wilder
and certainly more powerful.

I want to buy a Robbe Eolo and I am trying to find the lowest price.  I live
in Florida so I would like a vendor in the U.S. or maybe someplace that does
international orders.  The goal is to save as much $$$ as possible.

dump their helis when they land?
When I land I fly to about a foot, hover, then gently, oh so gently, lower
the machine to the deck before chopping the collective and power.  yet when
I see video of the top fl;iers they fly to their feet and keep on going,

I did an arsehole thing , and left about a CM of fuel in my tank for about
two weeks, and now its made an ugly water line residue.
Any suggestions on how to clean the tank , without stripping the heli ?
TIA

What is a decent way to adjust head speed without a tachometer?  Wondering
if my head speed is a bit on the steep side.

Okay I've finally decided to upgrade to an OS 32 SX-H.
Question is ring or ABC ?
Although, I'm new to helis I have over 15 years of running model engines so
please rule out the "ring because it's more tolerant of beginner's mistakes"

Just bought a YS91ST to run in my Vigor.
Anyone using a combo like this ? Any tips regards setup  if the answer is
yes ?
