Re: help

uh, if it's not the correct model SEND IT BACK!!! you should be all over the sellers back. now besides that if the pitch is correct and the gear mesh has a tiny amout of a gap between the gears, and everything is in order it should work... oh, you may have screwed up the battery. they usually come charged. inany case GET IT REPLACED and try to get a brushless motor for that tail.

Re: help

just do it so all responds like it's supposed to. usually they come set, and you won't want to mess with them. please don't you're asking for a crash. but if you did just unplug the motor/ move it so not in contact with main gear, and just mess with it until they're all like they're supposed to be. don't worry about it once set, and try not to mess with it. please post a pic, youcan use www.imageshack.us for hosting.

Re: help

well that's the right size for your heli. you did exactly what a manufaturer does to make their batterys. tey just use shrink wrap. Oh if you get a li-poly, the best size is a 1200mAh li-poly. I think It's lighter than the one you have right now, yet much more powerful.
