Coaxial Quirks: The science behind your Coaxial Heli
Ever wondered why your heli does what it does? How it turns or goes forward? How about how it flies period? This Section explains all you'd ever want to know about how RC Heli's work. For me, learning about this stuff is almost as fun as flying! Happy reading :)

How They Fly:
How do Helicopters fly? More specifically, how do coaxials work? Why don't they have a tail propeller? All these questions and more are answered here.
Control and Movement:
How do 2 simple control levers fly a helicopter? How does a coaxial go forward or turn? Control and Movement answers these questions.
