Re: Massive LED wind turbine

hi ben

inverted heli flight

in normal flight mode when you throttle up the heli lifts and when you throttle down it drops the throttle starts right at the bottom

to go inverted you flick what is called in rc heli terms the idle up switch wich inturn starts the throttle at middle stick sellects the motor to rev up when you pull your stick down instead of trottling down...the blades are set to 10% negative and 10% positive.....this is how inverted flight is posiable...hope this helps because when i first started i to thought it was imposible to go inverted
aron will talk you threw it

Re: Massive LED wind turbine

Bens right,
I did a small turbine with 18 red LED powered from a sturmy unit. I erect this every year at Christmas, its in its third year now and so far I have had no problems from the council. This could be that its only up for one month a year but it is very visible when opperating.
