gyro

A gy240 from helihut would be great, if your just starting. It's a heading hold, and works great.
When I started out with a Nexus, I bought a used CSM360. You need a free channel with adjustable...

tight clutch

Been there, done that. If you start and run these things in idle up, or the throttle set high, you overheat the clutch shoes, causing them to weaken and expand. If you look closely at the shoes....

gy240

Well, I set my linkage out as a first step. At 15-16 mm, I was binding at the end points, so I used the atv's to stop that. The atv's wound up at some crazy numbers like 39% right rudder, and 49%...

gy240

No, I just found it out by doing it. Switched components between my Nexus and Raptor 30"s.
I have read somewhere that the 240 has a much slower frame rate than the 401. Same heading hold technology,...

gy240

Hi guy. Same problem. Had a FMA coreless .10 high speed hooked to a CSM360. Had probably the fastest piro rate of any heli at our field.
Same servo with a gy240 turned into a real dog. Smooth...

Well, no luck last time, so I'll try it again.
At our funfly (helis only) this last Sunday, one of our experienced pilots in our club, gave me the following information.
I fly 15% Byron fuel. He...

phasing

Good post Tisrich. I wish Kyosho would emphasize how to set the phasing properly. We have some of these guys buy them as arfs, and when they wreck them, they totally miss the phasing part when...

swash plate tilt

Hi guy,
If you tilt the swash plate forward, the heli will fly forward, but if you look at what that input is doing to the blade and paddle pitch, it appears that it would tilt left.
The other guy...

crabbing

Hi guy, I fly a Nexus and I know if your phasing is out bad enough, it can cause it to fly sideways.
Your manual on assembly addresses that. With your main blades pointed to the front and back of...

One more thing. I'm flying a jr662 as well. If your using any servo except a jr, the servo reversing function should be set in normal, and the reversing plug should be removed from the gyro. If your...

Good luck..

2 things. One, Kyosho recommends sloooooow spool ups. Especially when you're on the ground lifting off. 5...
