The Kasama head is fully programmable so you can make the heli fly as you want it to.

If you are someone who wants to spend time tweaking the heli then it's worth considering, if you just want to g ...

Mine's quite simple:

Mark = my first name
2.5 = 10/4
V = 22nd letter of the alphabet
6 = 12/2

Not really, mine comes from the Jaguar forum and the 2.5v6 is the engine in the Jag.

Set all your servos so that they operate correctly then find the "swash mix" settings, select "Pitch" and reverse the number you have.
