Construction difficulty "3"

Difficulty 3 rated kits like this are suitable for RC pilots who already have experience and skill in building, setting up and flying models of a similar class. And although this is one of the easiest helicopter kits to build, making it a perfect first kit model for a number of pilots, you should have the experience and skills to successfully set up and fly other helicopter models such as the Blade 330 and Fusion 360, before you decide to fly the Fusion 550.

Recommended Spektrum transmitters

To pair the BNF version model, we recommend modern SPEKTRUM programmable transmitters:

• 
  
• 6-channel DX Spektrum DX6e DSMX series transmitter with telemetry, 250 models in memory .
  
• 6-channel transmitter of the NX Spektrum NX6 DSMX series with the latest trends, Smart Technology compatibility, USB port and WiFi connectivity .
  
• 8-channel transmitter of the NX Spektrum NX8 DSMX series with the latest trends, Smart Technology compatibility, USB port and WiFi connectivity .
  

Recommended chargers for conventional LiPol and Smart batteries

If you decide to use modern Smart LiPo batteries in RC models of airplanes or helicopters, or to charge your batteries from other manufacturers, then we recommend the following chargers:

• 
  
• Network charger Spektrum S155 with one output 1x 55W .
  
• Network charger Spektrum S1100 with one output 1x 100W .
  
• Network charger Spektrum S2100 with one output 2x 100W .
  
• Network charger Spektrum S2200 with two outputs 2x 200W .
  

Blade maintenance accessories

For the normal operation of flying RC helicopter models, you need a suitable set of tools and a LiPol battery storage case. From our assortment, we recommend a quality set of 1.5/2.0/2.5/3.0mm allen screwdrivers and Modelcraft Phillips screwdrivers (set of 6). Modelcraft mini pliers in a case (set) will surely come in handy for assembly.

Quick fix adhesives

For quick repair of z helicopter models, we recommend fast curing second adhesives. From our offer, we recommend Robitronic instant glue medium 20ml or Roket Cyano Gel gel instant glue 20ml.

Preparations for securing screws

To secure the screws against loosening, we recommend Robitronic screw glue blue 10ml.

Gear lubrication preparations

For gentle gear lubrication, we recommend the Modelcraft precision oiler with Teflon oil 7.5ml.

Protection of electronics

NANOPROTECH ELECTRIC 75ml can be recommended for gentle gear lubrication.

Protective covers for accumulators

Protective packaging is intended to limit the risk associated with the transport and charging of accumulators. LiPo accumulators, while maintaining small dimensions and low weight, can provide high discharge currents and have a large capacity. The LiPo battery is particularly susceptible to mechanical damage and therefore needs to be thoroughly protected.
