Complete setup for a CCPM helicopter in Spektrum DX7 radio. Trex 250 helicopter is shown, but this applies to any helicopter with 120-degree CCPM head.

You can make just about anything with this module by varying the angle on the ends. This video shows the 60-degree module, which makes the Tetrahedron, Hexahedron, and Icosihedron (the first 2 at the end, and the pink foil one)
This is the first flight of my Trex 450. It took a while to get it trimmed correctly, but it flies really nice! I have a little experience with coaxial helicopters, but almost no real-life experience with CCPM helicopters. This video is proof positive of the value of practicing on simulators! No crashes on the first flight is pretty good I think :)
Maiden flight of my SIG Hummer electric conversion.
These are $500 Plug-n-Play - all you need is a receiver. Contact me if you want one. Built to order. This design is capable of 100mph and more, and no messy fuel! She flies on rails and is capable of mild aerobatics as well as blinding speed. Requires intermediate-level experience to fly.
Onboard video of my Pitts Biplane after repairs. Thankfully I didn't have to make any repairs after this. This is a good example of why you should really fly at a bigger field.
Just trying some flips with my Blade 400. This is the first time I had it inverted and it was harder than I expected, but the helicopter performs nicely.
This demonstrates the delicate movements you must develop for proper flying. You must be able to make extremely small movements when hovering, or you will over-control and probably crash.
