Hi boyz and girlz, I'm currently in UK, but original from Lithuania...I'm sure nobody knows where (what) is that :)

26 y.o. Married and have a child (but NOT a shoes seller :) )

I have a plane which has 2 meters wing span, not suitable for newbies, but I LOVE THAT PLANE -

crash it in first and second time of my "flights".

I'm also have a 2 micro helicopters,those are great,we often fly with daughter, she likes helies too...

Now I'm waiting for MY FIRST REAL HELICOPTER - HK450GT

Dunno nothing about CCPM helicopters, that's why I'm here!!!

P.S. MR. TONY's videos are very helpful, big and honest THANK'S for him.

See ya!

Thanks for the props bro, and I love the "Married With Children" pun. I didn't know that everyone in the world could see that lol. That was my favorite show in the early 90's.

As for the help, ask anything you wish, that is what we are here for. And I have to say, you made a great choice for a first heli. If you can, post up some pics of that plane. I'm hoping to head out to the flying field this weekend before the wind and weather comes back.

Welcome to the forum!

I have tried that gyro and it didn't work for me. I ordered two, one was horrible and caused wag in the tail, and the other just wouldn't lock the tail. I hope you have better luck with it.

The gyro is a bit old school now. It works well, but there are better alternatives. The GA 250 gyro is much better and smaller and cheaper.
And i would get an 11T pinion to start with. The 13T will only give you about 4 mins flying were the 11T will give 7/8mins. As you are only hovering at the moment, flight time is the most important.
