Wake up! Time to fly!
Nice mate that started up smooth as all get out. I didn't see any shake at all and the blades look like they track perfectly. That will fly beautifully once you dial in your expos and all that. I can't wait to see it in full sun though. That's gonna be incredible with the detailing you have done on it.
I do have a question on the way it sounds though. Is that chirping sound just new gears or is there a mesh issues that isn't quite right or possible gear slippage on the tail rotor shaft? I know when I did the gear replacement on my nitro one years ago I was informed to sand lightly between the teeth to remove the slightest bit of flashing. Then to take a piece of paper and insert it between the main gear and the motor spur gear to set spacing. The guy who was helping me said you will know by the sound if the spacing is off. Is this process different now on newer stuff like you have?
