Hello all ,a short intro I've been into R/C since about 92 and was active a lot back then always growing the fleet then in 96 life got super busy and time for flying was'nt there and only now an then got to dust things off.slowly again i've goten back into it some.clearing up most planes and tradeing off stuff for other stuff.do some upgradeing here and there.well what I left is mostly what I really liked.after the planes and boat stuff, I realized Helio's thats what I liked alot.in about 97 I got my frist chopper it was a HIROBO TSURUGI 60 enya .got it from a club member that was a decent pilot and truth full about everything the chopper was.offered all the help I needed.problem was it was a hour and a half drive away.then later
he moved farrer away (JOB).an I was on my own.the radio I got was a futaba fp-t8uhf with a lot of stuff in it that seem to totally loss me on settings.
the gyro was a futaba bb153 .back then it was a mech electic one that eat battries sort of fast.after a few dozen hovers some short circles and I was hooked.now I only got it out once in a while over the next year or so and never out of the tranning sticks and I had a tail strike .after fixing it all again I some how ended up with a wag go on. then a needle seat screw fell out and it did'nt run well.I never repaired the needle screw because it was a hard to find item as time went by the battery were bad and a friend tryed to help me get it going again only to fail cause of setup.it is in great shape today minus the needle.since then I traded away lots of planes and got a couple of savage xx nitro trucks that are a blast.well I traded a older four wheeler for bunch of Helio's and stuff two JR venture cp like new with OS MAX32sx in each with gy240 gyros ,a Century Hawk lll with a airplane mds40 no gyro ,a helioboy and extra century frame and head.and now the other week I was at a garage sale and picked up a HIROBO sceadu with no head but I knew it was a deal cause it looked real nice not beat at all storty was it hit a brush still learning young pilot that could'nt repair it.it has new OS max 32sx a gy401 gyro an all jr servos .now I would like to get back into flying and building ,I never loss my building skill set ,I'm very patient.now my down fall is i don't under stand some things that have changed ,I learned that the venture are a different from the tsurugi cause the swash plates are differently controled ,and i had to read every thing I could find about ccpm and standard 90 and 120 and 140.
I bought a jr 7202 for the ventures but have'nt messed with it much .my new but old fp-t8uhf does'nt have ccpm in it I don't think.I'm going to try and get some thing to fly frist I think a venture frist.my goal will be to bring the tsurgi to the air fix up the old century get some parts here and there to repair the sceadu which I don't know much about yet,I don't know what type of swash it used? here are some pic of a bunch of stuff that has not had much air under them and a lot of dust moved.I'll have questions but I'm slow on the computer skills.
