All About Helicopters is still making progress and is nearly half done.
Enjoy!

Collective Pitch Flight School is Complete!
In addition All About Helicopters is making major strides to become fully complete.
Coaxial / Fixed Pitch Flight School is also being revamped with an additional lesson. This has required me to go back through and change parts of the lessons. Currently, Lessons 1 - 4 have been updated.
I have also gotten rid of the sub-menus on the Site Navigation Bar at the top, tell me what you think!

In addition a few terms have been added to Technical Terms.

Coaxial Flight school has been expanded to apply equally to both coaxial and fixed pitch helis! A number of new terms have been added as well :)
6/15/12
My RC Car. Included here just to be different.
I've worked a lot on the site since the end of May, with the result of a Completed Coaxial Flight School! A number of new terms have been added, as well.
5/26/12
What's New? A number of new terms, including ground effect, dissymmetry of lift, and translational lift in Terms and Definitions.
Also, lesson 5 has been expanded. Soon coaxial flight school will be complete!
I've begun a page on how to do common repairs on coaxial helicopters. But for now it is still very much in construction.
More to show my happiness is the fact that I've finally received my replacement motors! But I've flown very little due to the poor weather. Soon I plan on explaining how to know when to replace a motor in Repairs.

Coaxial Flight School Significantly increased! I'd put off finishing this section for ages, but its just about complete! Lessons 3 and 4 are finished, with lesson 5 being worked on right now!
Battery Dimensions of the stock 9053 li-ion battery are now on 9053 Volitation Mods in Volitation Central. I've found the maximum length that a battery can be and fit in the canopy, as well as the stock battery weight for reference when buying a new battery.
A new background: Although I liked the vertical menu of my old background, I disliked the other "baggage" that came with it. I wish I knew how to change the site layout, but I don't: I'm a heli guy, not a computer one :)
In addition a number of other small tidbits have been added elsewhere.

Ready to pick up the pace.
In the past few days I've done a bit.
How They Fly
This page has been a flop for about two weeks. Now it has some information!
Site Layout and look:
I've changed the theme of this site. Tell me what you think!
Site Name:
For those of you who have seen this site before, I've changed the site title a few times. Now RC Heli Guide is my new site name - for a while at least! :)

This page isn't finished yet.
This page is still grounded. It'll be fully charged soon.
_This is obviously not my job so I have only limited time to work on this
site. As I work more on it, though, check back on this page again.
