About Soko Heli Toolbox
It doesn't matter if you are a rookie and build your very first flybarless RC helicopter or you a pro and you do it every week. With the instructions in the Soko Heli Toolbox app you will get a perfect setup each time.
The combination of our great Soko Kit with its unique setup methodology and this Soko Heli Toolbox mobile app provides everything you need for an even faster and less error prone setup process of
• swash plate level (at all pitch angles)
• blade tracking
• collective and cyclic pitch angle
• servo mid and end points
• fine tuning of linkage length
• centre of gravity
• absolute horizontal (spirit) level of helicopter
• pitch angle of the tail blades
All this for ALL sizes and ALL brands of RC helicopters!
This is no news for all of you who already know the Soko Kit.
The jewel you've all been waiting for is the VIRTUAL MAIN SHAFT feature! It gets rid of the vertical alignment of the main shaft and the need of any physical levelling table by calculating the tilt of your main shaft in 3D space.
With such a virtual 3D model of your heli's orientation, Soko Heli Toolbox is able to perfectly setup your head geometry.
For example if you want to setup 12° of collective pitch the app tells you to go to 15.2° on the Soko Gauge due to the tilt your heli. So despite you read an angle of 15.2° the angle in relation to the rotor main shaft in 3D space is 12° - and that's what we all are after!
But we won't stop here!
In future we will add many more features to Soko Heli Toolbox to improve the user-error resistance during the setup process in addition to other small useful stuff you already know from our website.
So don't setup like they did in the last millennium. The future of RC helicopter setup is already here!
Don't live in the past and soko your heli.

It's made setting up large and small helicopters a piece of cake. The VMS is worth it.

Such an awesome tool ! .... the best but worst part is that after using this tool for the first time, it highlighted the other issues I have with my heli .... gotta love a tool that sets up a heli to perfection and also shows that you've been flying a heli with such a bad setup that mask it's problems and it needs attention!

This app eliminates the need for a totally level working surface or shimming your heli skids to level the main shaft vertically. GREAT APP to compliment your Soko Helical and gauge.

(Ugh! I accidentally deleted my previous post.) Best heli set up tool hands down! This app is essentially an instruction manual but keeps the setup organized. The virtual main shaft tool for $8 is not worth the money. Easier to just set the main shaft level by the original way of shimming to heli skids. This method is accurate enough. No reason to fret over a fraction of a degree setting the heli up.

Have this app on my galaxy S5 and Galaxy tablet. Used it on my 450 and 550. Combined with my Soko Tool it got everything bang on. Highly recommended.

I've used this on two of my helis so far and it's far more precise and makes the job of setting up a heli faster and enjoyable.

Awesome concept, I only gave it 4 stars because numbers are way off on my Goblin 500 the numbers get even worse when I use an old fashion swash level tool. Works great on my son's HD 500 though, plus I keep the Soko heli tool in my tool kit for non-virtual tuning as its a fantastic tool! EDIT: I am upgrading stars to 5 due to the false Goblin 500 reading being induced by a faulty flybarless unit which I replaced this weekend. The Soko heli tool was within +-.01 if not perfect on the readings :)

Great tool for a perfect setup. Makes setup so easy. Not sure if the virtual main shaft is worth the money though. Gave it 4 stars instead of 5 because you have to pay additional for virtual main shaft after buying Soko tool kit. Should all be included in original price.
