Mr. Bob We all greatly appreciate the help... Those of us that do not have much experience in the model heli hobby will benefit most.
You've done a great job also...

Thanks again

What do I think?

I think this is the best thread I've EVER read!

Thanks Bob, you've cured all the setup problems I had.

It's pure coincidence that I'd already bought the same radio gear and gyro you use in the videos so setup was a breeze.

I'm a total newbie but with your expertise, I can now hover with no problems at all

Bob,

Thanks very much for the videos. I've been flying RC helis for a bunch of years, and still learned a lot in most of the videos. Even on simple subjects, I learned a thing or two. Absolutely Great!

Bob,

Thank you for your wisdom and knowledge in the build and setup of the T-rex. It is people like you that make an excellent mentor for the rookies in the heli world. It is very gracious of you to take time out of your day (and produce videos) to help others understand the process required to construct a smooth flying bird. I thank you genuinely for your exceptional knowledge.

The Rookie

will do i will give you credit for the videos , i must say i was very confused about under standing pitch and throttle curves, i started flying heli's last year and all i could figure out was the normal mode. your videos really helped me under stand what i needed to do. now i need to set up my 30 size heli. the hobby is blessed to have someone who would take the time to make the videos. also if you decide to make anymore on seting up a nitro heli like a raptor ect.
pitch and throttle ect. please email me and i will post them on our web page. i am going to make a section just for you videos
thanks again

Bob,
Thanks a ton, these vids were perfect timing. I just bought and finished my Trex watching your vids. I would never have figured out the CCPM interacations without your help. Now how about some vids of how to fly
