My post disappeared again!

I posted a question this morning regarding the availability of a better/bigger fixed-pitch heli than the Honeybee and now it's gone. This has happened to me twice before on RCU. I would suspect I'm...

RE: Thinking about getting back into R/C

sscherin -

Thanks for that info and links. I still have a lot to consider on these helis, but it seems quite a bit more expensive to get a proper heli set up than a proper plane. I want to be...

RE: Thinking about getting back into R/C

Thanks for the responses so far. Apparently the JR 7202 includes a synthesized receiver, because they claim no-crystal frequency changes. And thanks for the tip on getting a heli version to fly...

Thinking about getting back into R/C

I'm not sure if this is the right forum for this, but here goes...

I was into R/C airplanes in the late 60's thru 1971 when I was in the Air Force. Mostly sport flying and a little pattern ...

Skids for HBFP

Well, I've finally managed to hover a few times, never more than a few seconds at a time, and most landings have been controlled (somewhat) crashes. I've broken the landing skids a few times... this...

Does Heli-sim have sound?

I've been using FMS for a few days now, but the heli (fixed-pitch Dragonfly) seems unrealistically stable compared to my HBFP. I heard about Heli-sim, another free simulator, on one of these forums...

How to download/use models for FMS

Ok, to all those out there who know more about computers than I do (most everyone, I suspect)... I set up FMS off the CD included with my new Honeybee and it only includes about 6 models. I've found...

RE: HBFP - did I get myself in too deep?

I just a few minutes ago finished my 8th battery with my HBFP, sort of following Radds, trying to keep the tail straight (flying the nose), and still have not successfully been able to hover. I can...

RE: Honeybee FP - so many versions!

I received a reply from ka-planes regarding the USB/simulator cable. It is NOT included with the HBFP at $99.99. They will sell you one for $9.99 extra.

RE: Honeybee FP - so many versions!

Fixed pitch heli bigger than Honeybee?

Does anyone make a larger (28" rotor or so) fixed-pitch heli. It's my understanding that larger helis are more stable and easier to control. That, and the fact that fixed-pitch helis are cheaper...

RE: Honeybee FP - so many versions!

Single-stick radios all gone?

I've been out of R/C since the early 70's, but lately I find myself checking out RCM & other mags to see what's up. My last (and favorite) radio was a Kraft Series 70 single-stick with a knob on top...
