INTRODUCTION
Congratulations and thank you for the purchase of great product! It is our sole desire for
you to enjoy the quality workmanship and performance of any of our helicopters. We
believe we have the latest designs and technology incorporated into our model
helicopters. Our CNC parts are produced using the best high density materials &
anodized using material hardening finishes with the tightest of tolerances. Our new
helicopters feature the latest advances in R/C helicopter design. The simple and
mechanically superior EMS design (also known as CCPM) ensures a helicopter that will
be more responsive and more stable than any other R/C helicopter you have ever
flown. In the GasHer, three servos are attached in a push-pull system ensuring precise
control. Frames are specially designed with “floating system” engine mounting. This
new design eliminates most engine vibrations. The GasHer kit comes in 2 versions:
Sport with G-10 composite frames, and Pro with carbon fiber composite frames. Each
frame is 3mm thick offering the utmost in rigidity and strength. This helicopter features a
separately purchased kit allowing the owner to change the helicopter from a belt-
powered tail rotor to a torque-tube-drive system. The owner may also purchase the
helicopter initially with the torque-tube-drive system. Along with great products, our staffs
are RC guys that fly and have hands on experience with total manufacturing & testing of
our helicopters. In addition, we stand behind all our products 100% with satisfaction
guaranteed. Our kits will be shipped 100% complete and we can assure you that once
you fly your helicopter you will love it.
The Gas-Her
We believe you hold in your hands one of the best helicopters manufactured in the world
today. The brand new Gas-Her is the newest version of our Big Gas Quick line. It
has bigger, stronger frames and is a powerful machine. This baby delivers amazing
power smoothly throughout the entire range of its gas engine. Its functions are very
responsive and stable. The Gas-Her Pro version features a fully machined
dual-spindle head, metal tail rotor, metal grips, carbon fiber frames, bigger carbon rudder
push rod, carbon linkage rods, and carbon fiber boom supports. The Gas-Her
Sport version features a G10 fiberglass frame, fully machined metal head,
carbon boom supports, carbon rudder push rod, and molded tail blade grips. Our
helicopters are carefully designed and tested, and manufactured of the highest quality
materials available.
In a short time, you can be flying.
We ask that you please read the entire manual before starting the construction of the
Gas-Her, and if you have any questions our technical support staff can be reached
at [phone] M-F 9-6, S 9-4 Eastern time,
