JR Venture CP Tail Rotor Direction?
The manual shows CCW direction on main rotor(viewed looking down) and CCW rotation on tail rotor (viewed from tail rotor side of boom) but engine spins main rotor CW which causes tail rotor to spin CW which would make the tail rotor blades backwards.
What is the correct rotation for the tail rotor?

Looking down on heli, main blades turn clockwise. Now, turn main blades backwards, (ccw) and your tail blades should be going backwards as well. Can get confusing ...good luck!! Any more ?'s
Feel free to ask.

Thanks.
Just wanted to confirm what I knew. They tail rotor blades came preinstalled so what you confirmed was that they are on backwards and that is why the tail would not stabilize.
