Default RE: PiccoZ Micro R/C heli

maybe its for stability, to help keep the tail from swinging around too much. might not be a bad thing to try.

my heli started having some issues with not seeming to have enough thrust. a small shot of liquid graphite and she was flying great again. today i did the simple mod of putting a couple fins on the nose, as well as a little hood scoop, both to catch the main props prop wash and push the nose down, giving good forward flight without much added weight. i also removed the rest of the sticker on the tail and replaced it with a larger tail, but i think i could have made it bigger - same with the fins, but otherwise it works pretty good.
