Default Tip O' the day

I'd like to keep this running, just one tip per day. There's some things I forget, some things I don't know, or don't know how to do. I'm sure some may have similar questions and this will be a great tool combined with the search engine. Everyone can contribute. If you don't see one up for the day, fire away. It doesn't always have to be uber heli geeky so don't be shy.

Getting your wings, transmitter and fuel to the field is one thing....remembering to bring them home is another. And if you have to ask, my flight box had a nice relaxing evening all by itself at the local flying field. Luckily, it didn't run away and it made it home the next day.

Good Morning!

Unplug the battery from your regulator if it's going to be sitting for a while.
