Aerohawk initial setup
 

I have ordered an Aerohawk and want to set it up as well as I can before I fly it so it’s as stable as possible. Are the any additional things I can do (that aren’t in the instructions) that will improve performance before I fly it for the first time?

Thanks for your help

Ive heard grinding down the balljoints a little bit may improve things a small bit.

First thing you should do is make sure the head is free to move. It should flop from side to side with no lock ups. You will need to sand down the parts that make up the head to ensure free movement.

The ball joints that go up tothe fly bar should also be free to move. I found that putting some tooth past on the joint and moving it round for a bit did the trick.

Toothpaste? :D How... unusuall. Ill try that on mine, but I think axle grease does the same though. :) Well, except for the minty fresh smell that gets fanned from your heli. :eek:

The tooth paste has a very fine grit that will gently wear down the extra plastic.
Plus it smell better then axle grease....:D
