Default Zap/Zoom/Shogun 400 newbie has questions

Hello all.

1) Was wondering if i could use my Piccolo's MiniAC2025/20 b/less motor on this bigger heli. if so, what pinion size should i use? right now the available options are 9, 10 and 11t.

2) Max blade pitch is stated as 7Ëš. Does this mean when the swashplate is level or fully tilted?

3) ... and how much pitch to give the tail rotors when the heli is a) on the ground, b) hovering, c) moving forward

thanks,

fabian

I dont know about the motor if it is a 400 size then yes.
It is 7 degrees with the swash level
I dont know how much pitch but If the arm on the tail is 90 degress to the tail and the servo arm is 90 degrees then it is fine maybe just a few clicks of trim

oops, made a teeny weeny mistake. my mini ac's actually a 1215/20. kinda puny little guy. just read somewhere that it's a 300 sizer.
guess it can't be used huh? anyway, thanks kyle for the note.

by the way, anybody any idea where i get upgrades for the Z400?
