Havoc Heli Info

One of the first problems that you will run into when you fly one of these micro heli fun makers is that they don’t fly worth a hoot right out of the box.  You will find that they will most likely spin wildly in a clockwise or counter-clockwise direction.  This is easily taken care of by clicking your trim switch on the transmitter, either right or left, depending on which direction you need to go in order to counter-act the spinning motion of your havoc heli.

Next, you will notice that getting the havoc heli to fly forward is not easy.  This is due to the front to back “balance” of the heli being off.  Usually they are tail heavy, so this kills your ability to produce forward motion.  The answer is to add a little weight to the nose.  The instructions say to add some metallic tape  to the nose, but this is a pain.  I found that a much better way, which provides for a nice fine tune adjustment is to use a straight pin in the nose.  You can push this in or pull it out to affect the balance quite easily.  If you need more weight that the pin provides, just visit your local glass bead shop and pick up some small beads that have a hole big enough for the pin to fit in.  Slide one or more beads onto the pin prior to pushing it into the nose of the micro heli and you will soon be able to get it flying  just the way you want.  Check the short video here for an example of this technique.
