Radio Requirements
Radios:
Hobbies & Helis & its distributors carry various lines of helicopter radios. Any radio that
supports EMS/CCPM Mixing will work fine. We recommend using an eight-channel or better
radio, although a six channel radio is all that is required.
Servos:
This is the single most important function of the helicopter. Any sport servo will offer
acceptable performance. You should be sure to use all the same type of servo on the swash
plate. Higher speed servo is recommended for tail, but not required.
Introduction:
Please read through the entire manual before starting your construction of the Quickie. If
there are any questions or concerns regarding the assembly of the helicopter you can call
Hobbies & Helis International (610)-282-4811 or Email the any of the following techs.

Threadlocker Warning (Very Important):
This is a general warning about the use of threadlocker and its importance. Threadlocker
must be used anywhere that a metal fastener i.e. (M2, M3, M4 Cap Head Bolts, Set Screws
etc.) are threaded into a metal part i.e. (Bearing Blocks, Cross-members, etc.). The failure to
use threadlocker can result in parts falling a part and possible loss of control of the model,
which can lead to a crash. Also, be sure to check your bolts’ tightness after each flight. Many
bolts, even with the use of threadlocker can come loose from vibration in the helicopter.
