Radio Controlled Helicopter

Ok, I learned something today… The pain I was having in my thumb was not from the tension on the joystick.  It was because I get somewhat stressed out when I fly, because I am always worried I am going to crash and it will seldom go the direction I want it to.

So the more stressed I get the harder I press on the controls, because now with almost no tension on the joystick my thumb still hurts and it’s from the death grip I have on the joystick.

The more stressed I get the more I squeeze on the controls. Radio controlled helicopters are not a relaxing hobby if that’s what your thinking.

Also I figured out when charging up the helicopter it works best to turn on the base battery charger then plug it into the helicopter just far enough for it to start charging.

If you plug it in all the way, then you have to almost rip the thing in two pieces to get it out.  And it just barely needs to be plugged in to work.

Last tip to flying a Micro Mosquito  radio controlled helicopter make sure your central heat and air is turned off, it will kick it air up enough to cause it to crash and have a lot of trouble flying.  The air in the room need to be as still as possible in order for it to work right.
