Default setup help

Be careful with the 805 mm blades! You need to extend your tail boom to accomodate those blades!!

The stock tail boom (31.5 inches) will accomodate up to 700 mm blades if you use 102 or shorter tail rotor blades, this is what MinAir has told me. I have heard others say you can use 105 mm tail blades with 700mm main blades, but I have not confirmed this myself. Check to be sure that the blades cannot come close or touch one another when deflecting the main blades down and closest to the tail blades.

Go here for amsoil: http://www.amsoil.com/

This is the oil I use: http://www.amsoil.com/products/aio.html

It's the premix, not the injector version:

I hope this helps. Good luck with your bird!
