CWSTUFFT,
The Pitch gauge cost me $11.95 from wholesaletrains.com from NY. It does not have a spirit bubble level, but works fine for the money. In response to RCCCONTI have the cnc alum frame from heli hobby and have had some problems. It is heavy and generates glitches I think from time to time. The double tailmotor frame is rock solid in a hover. The alum tailboom is longer then the fiber one and can cause blade strikes if you pull backwards real fast. I have not given up on it and it seems to work good with Carbon fiber main rotor blades. I have purchased the plastic main frame and skids from heli-direct that RBCCONT is showing in his third picture. I will try this and will see how it works. I also notice that almost everyone is using the alum swashplate with the BHiller upgrade. Maybe the alum CNC frame needs some special sheilding around the wiring which may generate noise and cause glitches. Let me know how it works for you pilots that have purchased it.
good Luck and have fun,
Randy
