  1. Hi, I am in need of a tiny little gear that fits on the motor that controls forward and backward on the Heliguy Atom - I think its part number 17 on the parts list but I cant find anyway to source one, or confirm the size spec to source generic - or where to source a generic. Any help really appreciated. Happy to buy an old Atom off someone has one lying around. For info, as I am aware this is an old cheap model and hence probably due a new one anyway, my kids are at home and my eldest girl has taken an interest in RC since she found my old boxed up Atom and a nicer 3D number I have never got off the ground (hurray!!! I thought I was going to have to wait for my boy to get old enough!). Since then she has been asking to fly them. We tried to charge up the old Atom lipos but they weren't having it. So we ordered and waited for new Lipos. Patience is not her strong point but each day she asked and after about a week they arrived. A test flight or two by me to remind myself and try and put it in the easier mode, then as I was explaining the controls to her moving it around the ground I released something wasn't right. A quick look underneath and I could see the gear was missing, She was gutted and I promised to get it fixed - foolish of me! If anyone out there has a spare Atom, or knows where to get the little gear or . . . . . failing that, whats the best similar easy to fly outdoor device for a beginner available now? It will pain me to buy something else as we try to encourage her to fix and repair stuff not just buy new. She is only 7 but is very logical and follows instruction pretty well. Thanks for any help. Cheers M
  2. Hi, I have now got a WLtoys V922 2.4g Flybarless 3D 6CH RTF (sorry links not pasting!) As a few of you predicted is a leap up from the Atom and quite a handful! As its **** wet again I am looking for a cheap sim I can use to get to grips with the 3D / 6CH controls. The controller that came with the above has a jack input / out put which I believe is capable of connecting to a PC but have no idea about software/cables etc? Please help as its **** wet and I want to fly! Thanks LS
  3. OK Folks. The WL V922 arrived today. Looks good so far, just charged up and done a few basic tests until I can get outside. I noticed the TX has an output for a simulator. Are there any free/cheap sims that are any good and what sort of cable does one use to connect it? thanks
  4. Cutty, Can you PM me some more detail - spec? Batteries? Rtf? Etc and what a sensible offer is? I will be on the proper pc next week to do a bit of research on suggestions. Cheers
  5. Hi, I have had a heliguy Atom for a while, but I finally damaged it. I want a small RTF 3D Heli to get started in 3D. Indoor, but capable of outdoor on a still day. What models would you suggest ? Cheap but reasonable quality! Thanks
  6. Hi, I am looking for a small indoor 3D Heli RTR. Have been flying 4 channel in/out for a while and want to start with small 3D before getting something a bit bigger. Cheer
  7. Hi, put up a list of what you need when you get to the bottom of the grease - I sold/gave away all my savage parts but I am happy to buy/chip in to help get it running bud. Cheers
  8. Hi - maybe I am being a bit thick today, but I can't see any map or link in the thread?

  11. UKip - haven't exactly being following them but as far as I see they are a one policy party - they would take us out of the EU and then what? would you trust them with education, defence, healthcare, crime, economics, environment, civil liberties etc. etc. Oh . . . sorry think they also have a policy on immigration! that's two. On the question of leaving the EU, they see it in one dimension: saving money for the UK and stopping immigration. No body wants to talk about the fact that the UK is a very, very tiny island that has been punching above its weight for a long time. The world is changing with new more substantial countries taking more important roles, think China, think Russia, the more westernised parts of the Middle East. The e UK's voice will become less significant in years to come unless we are allied with the rest of Europe to give us more influence. I wont go on about other aspects of politics other than to say that for some time now I have been thinking that 'Party' politics is the problem. We should have a different process of election whereby no one is allowed to vote until they have read and understood the policies and implications of them (instead of the bill boards slogans). I don't really mind which way people vote, but I find it annoying when people vote because of superficial reasons - when I was about 15/16 I and too young to vote I recall a supposedly educated 19years old student who decided they would vote for Tony Blair just because he played guitar with Noel! Manifestos should be kept simple enough for people on the street to understand - i.e. we are going to slash working tax credit and that means . . . . . . then let people vote on the reality of the policy, not the spin, slogan or personality etc.
  12. Hi Folks, I am out of my depth on this one. Heres the problem, any help much appreciated: I have one excel file with multiple sheets: The
  13. is there any official video of the Brushless model? X-mas is coming!
  14. Yes - I am hoping to get some RC's soon (sold them all last year) and this is probably top of the list ! Also, can be had new at a good price at the moment: http://www.cdsmodels.co.uk/162-cen-genesis-gst-77.html
