1). Pierce the two carbon fiber rods through the cork in the shape of a cross. Cut the rods to your desired length, while keeping in mind that longer rods are intended for beginners (shorter rods will make it more difficult to fly).
2). Check that the cork is centered on both rods, then apply a few dabs of super glue to fix it in place.
3). Drill holes through the four ping-pong balls, then press the rods completely through them. Leave the pin-pong balls on the very ends of the rods, then apply super glue to fasten them.
4). Place the training gear on a flat surface, then plant the helicopter at the center, directly above the cork. Zip tie the rods to the skids, making sure that the gear remains perfectly centered.
