Tail Added!

I feel so accomplished today. the tail has been assembled and added to the helicopter. now it really looks like a heli :)


from the bottom, you can see how the linkage is setup


coming from a Blade CP, it's interesting to see how the tail assembly works. it's pretty nifty.
  • pulling on the linkage rod will bring the control hub closer to the boom, and cause the blades to fan inwards, thus pushing the tail left
  • pushing on the linkage rod will do the opposite

pretty simple, ne?

now all i've gotta do is setup the zero point for the tail (aka the point at which the servo is centered... )
