I've seen a few topics regarding headspeed and just wanted to know, how do you measure it? How do you know you have the correct headspeed?

I never actually thought of it and I don't remember reading anything about it in the JR instruction manual.

Think I need to find myself a good book. )

Head Speed

There are several head speed meters on the market. Unfortunately they are expensive. The best way is to fine someone who has one of these and let them tach your heli. If you have no access to one of these it is very difficult to do. You need to find someone who has experience with flying the type of heli that you have and listen to there heli and the noise it makes. Let them listen to your heli and have them make recomendation as to your head speed and any adjustments you may need.
