Mode 1 mode 2 need help
more info..
nearly all radio TX can be setup in either mode one or two. a 10 minute physical (spring) change, and simply selecting either mode in the TX mode select menu is normally all it takes.
when people say most guys in the area fly mode 1, try narrowing it down to just the heli pilots.
i think RC heli only pilots generally fly mode 2. most mode 1 heli pilots i know started on planes, although now would never admit to it!
