I just bought a smartech skylark electric helicopter - it is mostly assembled - I'm new at this. when I attach the rotary blades how tight should I screw them - right now they swivel back and forth - should they be fixed/stationary ?

Yes, they are going to be able to swing back and forth, don't make it too tight or the helicopter will vibrate and be really unstable, basically, it has to be just loose enough (not too loose) that the heli is able to straighten out it's own blades with centrifugal force.

OK
what did you do with switching the wiring from asian mode to american ? I understand we are supposed to switch wires 2&4 -did you do that - how did you determine which was which - counting from the top down 1-4 ?

Thanks
Barry
