Scott,

Sorry, I haven't responded quicker. We've had a lot of wind damage to our property, Sunday, and we are just now getting things back together. Big headaches for sure.[]

On initial inspection, it's not that big a deal.. Just make sure that all, screws, bolts and nuts are tight. Most important for you, since this is your first belt helicopter, is make sure the belt tension isn't to loose or too tight. Check the main blade tension and tail blade tension.
If the tail blades are too tight, it will cause some erratic flying. Tail bobs or tail waggling. Most should be in the owners manual. If you have any other specific questions. Please e-mail, me and I'll get back to you... Just been really busy.

Best of luck to ya,

Dave / Choppersrule

Dave,

I've read you and others mention several times that the initial inspection of the HBKII is very important as there may be things that need adjusted out of the box. Is there a list somewhere or a post or another forum where that 'initial inspection' info could be had? I have no clue what I'm looking for with this being my first belt drive heli; and all I've known since Christmas is the Blade CP+.

Thanks!!

Scott

Scott,

Congrats from me too, as Mr. Wnuk said, "You'll really like it Scott." As you know, there's several of us with the HBK2 with alot of experience, so any questions, fire away.. Take it slow and inspect it throughly, before maiden flight. Pays off. SET-UP!
