Another question about the L10

[MicroMan]

For those of you that were curious I puchased my L10 today YIPPPE!!!!. Im curious why the L10 has one main gear and the rest of the Mikado helis have a Main gear and a auto rotation gear. thanks for the info.

Congratulations!! :D

The Logo 10 has only one main gear because it does not have a driven tail. Inside the main gear is a one way bearing that lets the head spin during autos while the motor, main gear and tail does not.

"The rest of the mikado helis" -- Not sure what you mean with that.
The logo 14 is the only one with a driven tail and therefore the only one with 2 gears. The rest of the mikado's- 10, 16, 20, and I think even the 24 do not have driven tails. The driven tail gives you tail control during an auto otherwise you have no tail control during an auto rotation.
