My DX18 modification for challenged flyers with one handed operation is game changer for me and will be for you too.. Along with the pedal for the throttle and pitch, I am now able to solo pilot my aircraft. This week, we modified the pedal to a silky smooth operating one. The original pedal was stiff and sticking making is not so helicopter friendly. I also made a new transmitter bracket and painted it black instead of the original board. I am happy to report that now I can fly my helicopters again. Wow, How I have missed flying my Oxy helicopters and Hey, I'm back doing what I love to do.
