It has been a few weeks since my last post, and to be quite honest things have not improved. Thanks for all the advice on upgrades, but until I can hover the damn thing it seems silly spending money on upgrades. The helicopter still has the tendency to dwift to the left, and the more power I apply, the more eratic the tail becomes.

I have just bought a pitch guage ( with pack of new blades, and landing gear after a panic landing) and would like to know:

What angles should the main blades be at when at rest?

What angle, if any should the flybar paddles be at

What angle the rear rotor blades should be at.

I would like to just double check what the gyro should be switched to.

Hope someone can spare the time to help.

I am trying to set up a Youtube account so I then demonstrate the model "NOT" hovering
