Collective

[coolmanak]

Any ideas for a helicopter collective that I might buy? I'm looking for something durable yet affordable. Preferably a twist grip throttle, but without is fine.

Thanks in advance!

Do a forum search on this topic. There are members here that are building their own.

See what you can find.

Ouch, its a shame none of the big boys like saitek have yet turned their attention to collectives and heli controls. Still those look well made, so no doubt worth the costs, just sadly outside my limited budget and limited time I spend flying our rotary friends.

Hi I hope to complete my PPL with the help of this website and the great people here. But I have found a lot of stuff on Craigslist and YouTube I also find stuff about people who built stuff cheaply on YouTube.:p

Much much easier to replicate than a 7x7 yoke!
Build it yourself !!
