This is the most influential helicopter DVD series you’ll ever see! We’ve made getting into the challenging world of R/C helicopters as simple as it can be! The only difference between a poorly built helicopter and a perfectly built helicopter is Tender Loving Care (TLC). Find out how to give your helicopter TLC as you build it! Not only is the basic information there (101), we’ve included lots of expert tips (1001) that will benefit you as you progress! While we use Thunder Tiger’s Raptor 50 for the examples, the theory and building information is totally applicable to any helicopter. Like “Ray’s Authoritative Helicopter Manual”, we show you the theory, then implement it through the examples. When you truly understand what to look for as you build a helicopter, you can build ANY machine with absolute precision! HELICOPTERS 101-1001 includes: • VOLUME 4: Flight Theory, Engine Break-in, and Tools (1 hr. 13 min.; 21 scenes) This disk starts with basic flight theory. Learn how collective pitch, cyclic pitch, and the tail rotor control the helicopter’s flight. Advanced theory shows you how to obtain perfect mixture no matter if the engine is cold or hot! Finally, we’ll look at the tools needed to build a helicopter and the field equipment needed to get it flying.
