But I found an old paperback book called "Radio Control Helicopter
Models" by John Drake. It dates back to 1980, but I'm sure a lot of
the mechanics are still sound.
My late Wife used to fly those things. Before the advent of gyros small
enough to fit in a model, they were fiends to fly. It looked like you
needed 6 arms just to keep one in the air. She agreed they were tougher
to fly than the real ones. Now they have ones with autopilot.
With the new small copter gear around I wonder if it would be practical
to make a paper bodied copter with at least a semi accurate appearance
to the real ones?
