My X-cell 60 Graphite
by David Laux

This is my daughter Chelsey with my X-Cell 60 Graphite taken July 1, 1999.
She turns 7 at the end of July.
Around 200 flights and hasn't hit the ground - YET!   Knock on wood!!!!

Some Specs:
-O.S. 61sx WC with modified piston, sleeve and head.  Engine Mods by Dave Shadel
-Hatori Muffler.
-I run Cool Power 30%
-99 clutch update
-Constant tail drive main gear, 9.5:1
-Sped up tail rotor (standard on Graphite)
-Miniture Aircraft Rotorsport Pro 680 symmetrical glass blades.
-Minature's X-cell Pro Metal Head
-I had all the MOD's that Minature had until this spring (1999 Mod's)
-Futaba GV-1 Governor.  Head speed set at 1750 rpm.
-Arcamax PI Pro HH Gyro
-Artronics  Infinity 1000H radio
-5-cell receiver pack and regulator  (Leisure-tech Vancouver distributes great Regulator & Switch combos)
-I use 3 - 130 in/oz. torque servo's used on collective, elevator and roll

Radio Setup:
I believe in flying a very simple radio setup. I have most of the goodies disabled.
I fly +9 to -9 with 0 at center stick and have been flying with Heading Hold on
all the time.  I don't believe in knobs and switches so they are all disabled except
the Governor on/off switch, Throttle Hold and switching to the U-throttle curve.
I don't mix anything and do all throttle and pitch adjustments in the radio.

Arcamax PI Pro initial settings  by Mark Kiner
In addition I would recommend setting "in the gyro" expediential of at least
50% in normal mode and 75% in Heading Hold mode.  I use 60% & 85%.
