Put 'em both together

It's starting to look like a helicopter.

Like i said in the previous post, i had to re-do the control arms... after i realized that i missed something. thus the landing gear is seen attached in this photo.

anyhow, if you can see the collective contol lever near the middle of the picture, that piece controls the collective pitch of the helicopter. when you move it downwards, the helicopter blades will also pitch down... and vice versa, etc etc etc.

one thing to note, tighten to collar as far upwards as you can, or the mast will pull out of the spur gear as you increase the collective.
