What is the story on these? Do I need anything else than what I got (normal flybar rotorhead) to make this work?

What are the Flight Charactoristics and such? I dont want to get it and have to chane lots of hardware (http://www.rcuniverse.com/buynow/keywordclick.cfm?bid_id=991) in order to use it. Such as tail rotor ans servos.

There are several threads going on this rotor head...

The short story is that your regular mechanical parts (servos, etc.) will work. If you are going to use it with the Align EC135 fuse, you will need to modify the tail. In any case, it is more sensitive to setup than a standard head, and definitely more difficult to fly.

Here's my build thread on the EC135 with discussion of the tail issues and solutions: http://www.scalerchelis.com/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=8711&postdays=0&postorder=asc&start=0

Here's another good discussion of this head on the otheRR site: http://runryder.com/helicopter/t410367p1/

There are also several threads here on the Freak if you search a bit.
