Setting up gyro gain can make or break a model. Understanding how to set it up can be slightly confusing at first because comprehending the proportional integral derivative (PID) loop that controls your gyro can be overwhelming for new pilots.

Nothing garners more attention than a great-looking scale helicopter. Did you know that you could also enter your scale helicopter into a national competition? It sounds scarier than it actually is, and with the provisional Sport Scale category, it is even easier to get started in the AMA Scale Nats, held at the International Aeromodeling Center in Muncie, Indiana.

There are some younger pilots emerging on the helicopter scene, and one of them is Ryan Robertson. Ryan is a great heli pilot, but is also one of the youngest fixed-wing turbine pilots I have seen. He flies products from many manufacturers and companies including SAB Heli Division, HeliDirect, Pulse Batteries, iKon, Castle Creations, Savox, bavarianDEMON, and Dreamworks Model Products.

I’m not shy about stating how wonderful it is to fly at the Triple Tree Aerodrome. I have loved the place from the moment I first stepped foot on that hallowed ground in Woodruff, South Carolina. It’s not just the fact that the Triple Tree Aerodrome is a world-class flying resort, it’s the atmosphere of the place that seems to get inside of everybody—an atmosphere of fellowship, having a great time with old friends and new, and maybe with a little RC flying thrown in for good measure.
