mini rc helicopter tips image
Ducky
Ok im starting of my RC helicopter question with a DRAGONFLY 251 model, now befor I have heard of a product which was a pair of landing gear which were 4 beams going out on the bottom with balls on the end of them, theyre called somthing like training landing gear or somthing but I just cant seem to find them anymore. Thankyou for your help.
Answer
Training gear is the term used for the construct that you attach to the bottom of the landing gear to help prevent tip overs during training.
I made mine from two fiberglass rods, 4 ping pong balls and some rubber bands.

Sorry you're having difficulties... but as Super-Sabre said, helicopters are difficult to fly... fixed-wing fliers love to refer to them as a collection of parts flying in close formation.
I'm not an RC guy, but I AM a former helicopter crewman with 5000+ hours in the back and 224 hours flying up front.
The FIRST (and hardest) thing to learn is to hover: Apply power to get the bird light on the skids while applying tail rotor to keep the nose pointed straight. Raise the bird to about 2 feet.... and hold it there using SMALL control inputs. Next you learn to raise it to a stable hover and TURN the nose left and right to the major points of the clock: 3, 6, 9, and noon. Next you learn to side-slip the bird around a box (lets say with 10 foot sides).... first, pointing in ONE direction, and then with the nose always pointed inward.
I wish I could find a video, but I'm not an RC kinda guy... just a former pilot. GOOD LUCK
