On  the ground the paddles can hit the fuse at their limit, but ive never had them touch in flight. The main work i think, in getting a scale build right, starts with the bearing blocks that lift the mechanics to the right place for the mast to exit the top of the fuse. Below is a pic of what i did on the swift with the Funkey fuse.  Not petty but functional, and it gets the sit right in flight.  Shot 209 shows how some 18mm tube cut, bent, epoxied and painted for a scale undercarridge looks when done in about 40 mins.

Flying Mode 1 is easy if there was no Mode 2 when you started!

In my opinion neither swift or Trex. Has anyone got a copter X model, these models are superb value for money, great quality- honestly just as good if not better because of the fact they are cheaper.

My main passion is rc planes but have a few Copter X rc helicopters and my passion for those is almost taking over.

Check them out
