You will not be disappointed! I just got my up off the ground and it's a winner. I know something bad is going to happen because I didn't have to adjust the tracking, and only two clicks of right cyclic to get it hovering steady. That's it. That's what makes me nervous when that many parts come together and work nearly perfect the first try. I feel I should have to adjust something.

I thought it was pretty cool that I didnt have to track the blades and I only had to add 2 clicks of forward to get it hovering steady! I love this damn thing!!!

Awaiting arrival of Vibe 50 w/ O.S. 50 and MP5. Have 3 8717's in hand and an AR7100R. This is my first Nitro anything so i will do my research but will probably be asking some "dumb" questions.

Thanks to you all for helping me decide that this is the heli for me.

Cheers - Jeremy

My Vibe build tips from personal experience and gathered from various sources:

1) Follow the directions. They are very good.

2) If you have parts "missing" and extras, go back over what you did as you likely did something wrong.

3) Make sure you have the left frame on the left and the right frame on the right.

4) Look CAREFULLY at the diagram of how the main bearing blocks go in, I managed to put all three in upside down. And they don't even all go the same way.

5) Make SURE you put the tail bearings in properly. A least one person has made that mistake and the bearing came loose in flight the tail exploded.

6) Do NOT over tighten the lower Jesus bolt, snug is good enough.

7) When you insert the boom, don't shove it in hard. You can push the tail drive in and remove the backlash. Some say push it in, then pull it back out a couple of mm.

8) The LOWER rear swash servo is installed first (only real mistake in the manual).

Enjoy.

Thanks Guys - appreciate all the good advice and I will definitely be taking advantage of your experience. I am excited to get her up and running. Have only seen one other person with a Vibe 50 at the field.

Next week is the DNC here in Denver the the FAA has said no model aircraft are allowed to fly within 30 Miles of downtown. Good thing I have a new kit to build to keep me from losing it!
