I've been looking at www.ishiimokei.com  in Japan, the costs of their Nexus

I am having some difficulty in setting up the tail on my T-Rex. I have

I have to replace the clutch lining in my Venture 50 heli and was wondering
if someone could tell me how you fix the lining inside the clutch bell. Is
it glued or just a pressure fit?
Thanks

Please, if somebody has some experience with helicopter model Nikko
SkyWatcher. Namely, I have recently bought one and now I find it very
interesting to play with.

Had my Raptor checked by the local expert, then a demonstration, then my
first hover and bunny hop.
