I am suprised your out in the winter like that braving the harsh weather just to video a flight... Your right about the yard being a little tight for flying in.. It's like mine and I have power lines along one side too to deal with... Nice flying by the way I thought you were going to dip the skids in the cement pond....

Tom..... No "D" flying....

Enjoyed watching that. It does make one ponder though. What would be the affect on your King if it took an unexpected swim? Might not really hurt it, or might it be a total electrical cookoff! I suspect you've considered it.

After watching your hands off vid I purchased a digital caliper and reset my flybar paddles and trimed for hands off take off (no drift)

Really seemed to help the smoothness of her thanks for sharing your vid

I was gonna do that digital calipers but my paddles were molded wrong when I got it one is tilted up slightly bar is straight the plastic molded in the collar is bent upward. Can you open the calipers and measure from the other side(know what I mean?) and get in on the swash referencing from the bearing stop on top of the frame?

Not sure I fully understand the question (from calif ya know

)

I under stand which jaws you reference but not what to measure if its from top of the bearing to bottom of swash? What I mainly set (and was off) was the distance from paddle to head and setting that perfect gave me a much smoother spin up.

Ok I spent a few years out there in the military so Ill try to keep up. Dude like the swash you know the righteous round thing with servos on it with cool linkages. I was just wondering if there is anyway to line up any three points of the swash to the heli with the calipers also, so you could get a few more dollars worth out of those calipers and get a really level swash. I guess you make some type of plate and measure up from it.

I dont know what Im talkin about. Just throwin ideas out to you So maybe you can figure out a way to help the rest of us with precise setup.

Later on dude. Oh dude and hows the surf today? I sure miss turnin on the morning news for the surf report.

Ok Tryan

I thought thats what you were looking for. I think the space is to small to do it right I tried it at half stick and could barely fit it in. They do have swash leveling tools but I just eyeball mine and works pretty good.

A fitting burial at sea for the departed T. I got a kick out of after is under for a couple of minutes he rushes to disconnect the battery I think it was to late at that point

So far no problems with the extra tail speed. I am going to be putting a JGF400 in this week and will drop back down to a 9T pinion. The 11 is great but reduces my runtime a little. The JRs185 tail servo seems to be handling the the extra speed with no trouble. I guess the real trouble will be when I finally dork it with all the extra speed I can expect extra damage
