In this video, I walk you through the DIR setup mode on the gyro. In this mode, you will set all of your blade pitches including cyclic and collective. Please note, you MUST use 8º of cyclic in this step! If you require more than 8º when flying, you will make those adjustments in the Flight...
In this video, i will show you how to mount your 3GX gyro as well as how to wire it up with or without a Rx attached to it. For you 6ch guys and gals out there, you MUST use the included wires with a 6ch Rx in order to make the rudder gain adjustment work. For you 7+ channel peeps, channel 7 is...

One of the most important things you can do when setting up a helicopter is to set the swash perfectly level. The easiest way and most expensive way is to buy a swash leveling tool. However, you have to order it, wait for it, then after about a week you can finally use it.
In the video...
I'm sure by now you all have read my first impressions on the RCH Heli. And to say that I was less than impressed with what we ended up with is an understatement. If you are an RCH Supporter, you know what I have went through on this heli. For those that have not read my First Impressions...

I have been asked a couple times how I sleeve my wires. In all honesty, it's quite easy. However, some of the most simple of projects can seem complex when finished. For this reason, I have created this video on how I sleeved the wires on the Rc-Help Helicopter.
The sleeve I'm using in the...
As most of you know, things come in waves. From motor KV, to voltage, and now, MAH that a battery can sustain. Because of this, I have decided to create a quick article to try and explain what MAH means when you see it on a battery.
Lets talk about one of the most popular batteries out...
After many requests, I have decided to flash the RCH Heli's 3GX gyro to version 3.0 on the firmware. In the next videos, we will be going through the full setup of the gyro.
It's finally here, the first video in the 3GX Setup Series. In this video, I walk you through every step in the gyro setup process that you can do on the gyro its self without plugging it into the computer. This will get the gyro where you could put it in the air. But more videos are going to...
Here are the 5 most popular firmware versions for the Align 3GX Gyro. Right click, and select "Save Target As".
Align 3GX V1.2
Align 3GX V2.1
Align 3GX V3.1
Align 3GX V4.0
Align 3GX V5.0
Finally, we get the heli back to looking like a heli!
Finally, we are getting somewhere with the RCH Heli. In this video, I figure out that we are running version 1.1 on the 3GX and then I show you how to flash it to version 1.2. Yes, we are also going to run version 2.1 and version 3.0, but all in due time. As stated in teh video though, I'm sure...
It's about time we get some servos installed on this bird. Boring video, but all in building a used heli!
This is not exactly an instructional video, but more of a video showing the progress of the RCH Heli as promised to the donors of this helicopter.
In this video I go through rebuilding the head of the used Align Trex 600 Nitro Super Pro. Just because this is a larger heli, doens't mean that anything has changed. There are still thrust bearings in it as well as regular bearings and being a flybarless heli, there is a swash driver on this...
In this video, I go through rebuilding the tail on the Align T-Rex 600 Nitro Super Pro. This is oen of the most overlooked areas in a used helicopter since there are not that many parts involved. However, the few parts that are on the tail will be the deciding factor in a stable and easy to fly...
In this video, I explain what some of you have thought to be a bad DX8 or a DX8 that's going bad. In all reality, it's just a channel setting that's causing all of the issues. Hope this helps someone out there before they call Horizon or Spektrum.

In this video, I give you a look inside the Spektrum DX8. Some people need a visual look at what they are doing to get a better understanding of what's going on in there. There is no need to take the Tx apart when doing any adjusting of the sticks or modes, but this will help you better...
In this video, I'm going to show you one of the easiest things you can do to the DX8 to make it your own. Unlike the DX6i, the DX8 has holes in the case ready to adjust the sticks. Have a watch and let me know what you think.
