Default Rascal ARF- How do you set the gear drive mesh?

Nah, that's too much like work!

Slip a strip of inkjet printer paper, or copier paper in between the gears, then push them together tightly. Tighten down the motor, then pull the paper out. Viola! Perfect mesh, every time.
Thanks! That's exactly the kind of thing I was hoping to find: a foolproof, non-technical means of setting it up. I can do that in less than five minutes & get some flying time in this afternoon (if the weather cooperates)!

Thanks again for the help; now let's go flying!
