Hello,
about two months ago, I bought a Twister 3D, and I'm still very happy with it :)
I learned to hover nose-in with this helicopter, and now I'm flying circuits with confidence and an a lot of speed and sometimes I make a very nice stall turn.
:glasses:
I can't find much about this helicopter on the net, so I was wondering if there was anyone who also has a Twister 3D or a Carboon 400 (they are exactly the same helicopters) ???

I'm in the middle of setting up A twister 3d I got at Christmas. Most of it is progressing well butI'm having trouble setting up the CP. The instructions - well I can't call them garbage because there isn't any - they give no insight into how to set this thing up.

I think I'm almost there but the CP seems to work in reverse the swash plate moves up to decrease the rotor incidence. When I got it out the box (supposedly test flown) and conceted up the controls it went fromabout -20 to -5. I've had to shorten the links from the servos to the swash plate to their minimum to get any kind of +ve inc on the rotor blades

Keen to find out if anyone else has had same problems. WIll be firing up the motor as soon as the weather clears to try my set up but not very confident.

This is my first heli which i got at Christmas also. Have only just recieved a replacement Align gyro and I'm hovering no problems with it. I've definately got bitten big style. I'm currently drooling over carbon and alu upgrades but think i'll save my cash for a T Rex or similar
