All my compliments to John Salt for writing this fantastic R/C helicopter e-book. I know that this R/C helicopter e-book will help many frustrated R/C helicopter pilots with finding their way to successfully setup any collective pitch R/C helicopter. Although John mainly discuss E-Flite’s Blade 400 3D helicopter, all setup techniques can be applied in general to small or large collective pitch electric/nitro R/C helicopters. This R/C helicopter e-book will give you a thorough understanding how to use a pitch gauge, balancing rotor blades and lots of general tips. You will also learn how to setup throttle and pitch curves to tame your heli to be a gentle and easy to fly helicopter that will help you with your training.
