OK OK OK - I'm nearly on Page 2 of this MOD's handbook and I'm still reading about the warranty - I think videos and stickies are on Page 312

Hope that manual's got plenty of pics in it or we're all in trouble

Nice videos. However, when watching how you measure the paddle angle with the piece of wood, it reminded me of a paper gauge someone posted on this forums. The paper is very light, so it won't bend the flybar as would a regular pitch gauge. Just print (without scaling), cut out the hole for the paddle and sight the angle against the top of the head. Again, not my work, but I don't remember who deserves the credit.

Nuttcaze's video helped/help me alot. Taking his advice, especially about the spare parts that are needed, kept me flying and off the workbench.
Much respect NC
