Greetings,

This is my first post here, hopefully you guys can help me out.

I bought my first Heli, a Falcon 40, this past week. I jumped straight into it, but did a little damage to the copter.

I ordered replacement rotors, the tail shaft, the other flapper thingys that are 90 degrees from the rotors (forgive me I do not know the terminology yet).

My first issue is how to set these things up. I put in a new flybar, and I centered it as best I could. I put the flappers on the ends, along with the weights. After this is installed, shouldn't everything sit level? No matter what I do, its not sitting level.

Second problem.

My copter did not come with a knighthead, not the shaft, but the actual rudder looking piece with the graphics on. I ordered one with my other replacement parts, however I do not see how to attach it. Please help

Hello!1 wecome to the hobby. The fly bar and the paddles need to be centered to keep out vibration. I use a Metric ruler and measure fly bar on both sides. Seat the paddles all the way on the fly bar. In other words your measurment need to be the same on both sides. Now, as you site bown the edge of the paddle, site along the flybar to the other paddle and mak sure they are flat with the head. The tail fin is taped on with scotch tape.
