Spigarelli Zero Tolerance Magnetico is a nice one which will fit. Magnetic arm, fully adjustable and costs around £13.

These are highly recommended, but just to clarify: Spigarelli makes a special version of it's magnetic wrap-around that fits Hoyt risers, so you have to ask for it specifically.

Interesting... what exactly is the problem when you try to set it up? The Spig that I have fits the Eclipse - and by association should fit the AeroTec and Helix as well, but I've not tried it first-hand on the other risers. There are two holes in the riser - I have the rest held in place with the plunger nearest the archer, and the extra screw in the hole farthest forward (and without the accompanying washer, otherwise the screw won't be long enough). I also had to adjust the angle of the arm for better clearance, but it's fine now.

Let's hope another Helix owner jumps in here with some first-hand wisdom!

If you can be ar*ed with wrap around rests the Cavalier Free flyte Elite fits the Helix fine and it's a good product. I shot it for at least a day before I went back to an ARE flipper. (This of course means that ordinary FreeFlytes will fit to but you have to put up with irritating noises.)
