Model Forum / Radio Controlled / Helicopters / March 2004

Seems silly to buy nw when there's probably a few lying unwanted in sheds
and garages all ovr england.  Oh, and the rest of these isles too!  Sorry,
AHM!!!
Anyone got one?

This is one of the strangest things I have ever
encountered in cordination practice.
Left brain, right brain. While sitting at your desk,
lift your right foot off the floor.

Is it worth shipping something from overseas (Japan) to the USA or will the
shipping cost negate the savings?

Has anyone out there got the Raptor 30 mechanics inside a Century Airwolf
shell, if so what are the modifications, and is it a git to do???
Regards
Paul

I have just bitten the bullet and decided to by a Nexus 30 Helicopter is
there a book/website that might help with the learniing process I have
people in my model club that can set it up for me and I do fly planks but
that might not help me much?

As subject, due bad auto etc.
Anyone got one?  Or want one?

Spent a few nice hours this morning flying my Raptor 50.  Crap helicopter it
has to be said, horrid pitch down in FFF, but thats another story.
Anyway, spent flight after flight breaking my personal 'bette noir', the
auto.  I did 'em!!  Lots and lots of 'em, some to the deck, some ...

I recently took a gamble and bought a model helicopter on Ebay sold by
someone who knew nothing about it.
When I picked it up the seller told me that she had had an e-mail telling
her that it was a Helimax, searching the Internet this seems to be true in

I can't find my CSM400 instruction manual, prolly lost it when I moved.
Is there one available anywhere on the web?

Anyone here tilt their tail rotor?
I read a Mike Mas article in Rotory Magazine that said if you tilt the T/R
4-5 degrees,
it'll give a more stable hover, and reduce pitch up during FFF.
