Product Announcements &RC Helicopters May 18, 2010
The 9Eagles Solo Pro II Electric RTF RC Helicopter is very sturdy and crash resistant but some plastic parts may still need to be replaced after a particularly hard crash. We’ve bundled all the most commonly needed replacement parts into one discounted package so you can quickly get your Solo Pro II back in the air. The crash kit includes:
- 1 Solo Pro II Flybar
- 1 Set of Solo Pro II Main Rotor Blades (White)
- 1 Solo Pro II Helicopter Main Gear
- 1 Set of Solo Pro II Helicopter Black Landing Skids/Battery Holder
- 1 Solo Pro II Black Tail Blades
- 1 Solo Pro II Yellow Tail Set
- 1 Solo Pro II 1S 3.7V 120mAh LiPo Battery
The extra battery is included at a discounted price so you can fly longer between charges (and in some cases, crashes can damage the battery). These plastic parts are completely compatible with your 9Eagles Solo Pro II, so they all snap or screw in without the use of glues, thread lock compound, or other materials.
Besides using the replacement parts provided in the Crash Kit, you can also follow these tips to get your Solo Pro II flying again:
- Broken plastic parts like the landing skid can often be repaired with CA glue and accelerator. Epoxy resin also works but CA glue is preferable because of its lighter weight.
- Make sure that the rotor blade holders are tight enough to hold the blades, but not so tight as to prevent them from moving freely. Ideally, the main blades should swing under their own weight but not “wobble” up or down noticeably.
- A light, plastic-safe oil can be used on the main gears and swashplate to ensure they move freely. This is the most common cure for the “toilet bowl effect”, where the helicopter swings around in widening circles without pilot input.
You can get the Solo Pro II Crash Kit on our website. New to electric RC Helicopters? The Solo Pro II makes the perfect first helicopter for new pilots.
