I need a couple of tail rotors for my PicooZ Palm size Heli. the original broke today and I just can't seem to find the spare which came along with it. Anybody out there with spares? It was an expensive purchase and flies great, would hate to waste it.

Regards.

is it easy to fly???

Not really (based on having got the chance to play with them couple of times).

Going for something like the Model Art one would be a much better investment.

With all due respect, I'm assume that the Modelart type Heli with a Gyro is far more stable, however, with a bit of weight (around that of a paper clip) under the nose, the Silverlit Picooz is more than worth its weight in styrofoam. It is addictive!



Cheers!

'The video proved my point again   Now "being fun and addictive"... that is in the mind of the beholder and I agree they are fun

The 3ch ones with gyros will hold their tails, if you trim it right and apply rudder correctly, instead of doing piros whenever they feel like.

Around the 1:19 mark (just after the cellphone rings), as I was distracted, she meets the oncoming blast from a 1.5 ton AC and starts to pirouette. She recovers from it too. My fault. 

There is a point though, I paid Rs.1895/- for her in 2008. There are, probably, far better ones available today at that price. It is a testimony to the craftsmanship of Silverlit that she has lasted so long.........

VC,
Use ur best craftmanship. Cut plastic card/Plastic covering,, Sand it. Make center hole with 8 watt cell phone Soldering IRON, Bend with Hand. Put it in motor shaft and put some fevicol merin and check, It must work.

I have full aastha on your CRAFTMANSHIP as shipping takes time. My Swift tail rotor was also broken in two piece and insted of using standby rotor, I make one.

Thanks

Kalyan, please stop resurrecting these old threads. New rotors were made / bought and the Heli is flying like new now. Thanks!

Sorry, VC,

I dont know how this thread shows me in resent unread thread. However Before replying, I must check the date & time of last post. I dont know, Its script problem or something else. My system date & time is OK and No bugs inside my box.

However, SORRY for all.

Kalyan, nothing to be sorry about! That home made, scratchbuilt tail rotor looks original! Well done!
