There are a few things you will need to assemble your kit properly.
 
1. Locktite, lots of it. All Metal heli's require allot of locktite. I would choose the blue because I don't like heating the screws to get them back out later. Also, remember to shake your locktite thoroughly before each use!
 
2. Phillips head screw drivers. A set of jewelers Phillips will save you allot of headaches. Also, a #1. Just tell the hardware store #1 Phillips and they will know what you want.
 
3. Zip ties and side cutter pliers.
 
4. Double Sided servo tape.
 
5. Suggested radio equipment. (See Radio Page)
 
6. 5.5 mm socket and nut driver.
 
7. Needle nose pliers.
 
8. Remember that this heli is designed to run a maximum main rotor speed of 2400-2500 RPM. This is not a micro that needs insane head speeds to fly well.  You must have the 25T slow tail gear to run head speeds this high.   If you dont have it 2000 RPM is the absolute max.

 

          
What's New?

Due to contract expiration with the Chinese factory who made the blades for the EP-8,  QJ will no longer be distributing CF blades with the kits and will be making their own wooden blades to be included with all kits starting in Feb.  Also the FG canopy will be replaced with a lighter plastic blown canopy.

is now in production of G-10 side frames for the EP8!  (update: CF frames in ice blue are also available)

The EP8 has been updated. New frames that accept different servos instead of single servo fitting. 25 tooth tail drive gear and metal pitch plate are standard now as well as an upgraded tail box plate with larger bearings. We have received our demo 3-D version for testing. More to follow on this.
