Hello 'Prop Nut', I thought my post above was a long shot so I looked at other options and I contacted Elite Models who sell it and they are going to post me a copy. By the way it is the 5508890 box. It just goes to show that most things are possible on this forum and I thank you very much for your kind offer. If Elite Models do not come up with the goods I will certainly be in touch. Kind Regards, Nasher.

Craig, Do you still happen to have the assembly instructions for your model box? i have one but with no assembly instructions.

Many thanks for the advice guys. Also a Hi to Masher from Nasher.

Hello All, Looking to invest in a plane stand. I am currently looking at one which is mounted on top of a filed box, (elitemodels.com). However, as always I would appreciate any suggestions/feedback. Many Thanks in anticipation.

Hello Rob, Apologies it has taken me so long to let you know how I got on. Took the rod, linkage etc apart and put it all back together. It is working fine now. Many thanks for your assistance.

Many thanks Rob, I will have a look today and feedback. Really appreciate your help.

Rob, John, It is just when I give it right rudder and when I centralize it that;s when I get the flutter. It does not do it when I give it left rudder and back to center.

Rob & John, Thanks for the advice Guys. I will give it a go.

Hello again All, I have now taken delivery of my RIOT. It is assembled and the receiver has been bound to the transmitter. Everything looks/seems OK, (to my untrained eyes and ears), however, when the rudder is operated there is a flutter/buzzing noise which continues after I have released the stick. Is that an issue you guys can advise on or am I just better to leave it until someone trims it for me later on?

Brilliant!!!!!!!! LiPos management made easy.

I really do appreciate what you have all advised. As a novice I thought I would be inundated with information I did not understand. That has not been the case and because the club I am going to join has excellent instructors and 'buddy boxes' I have decided to opt for the RIOT. I will of course let you know how I get on and progress. As Mervyn quite rightly points out, so frustrating for all at the moment with the weather we are having. Once again thanks Guys, I very much look forward to being part of your forum.   Hello again All, I have now taken delivery of my RIOT.

I like mervyn robb have decided to take up the hobby. It is something I have wanted to do for some time however, with work commitments I juts never got round to it. I bought my DX6i transmitter last year and I have spent considerable time on a simulator. I now feel ready to join a club and be taught how to fly properly. My local shop owner has suggested a Riot to me as a starter plane. He has stated that with reduced throws it will allow me to learn how to fly and then once competent it will allow me to then have some fun with the plane. Can anyone tell me if this is the right way to go?
