Quick pitch adjustment question

[eegee]

I decided to rebuild my entire head the "right" way. I got a rod measuring tool and a flybar lock. Re-measured all of my rods and adjusted as appropriate. Re-leveled my servo mid-point. Used the trueblood tool to re-level my swash at top bottom and middle. I throw on my blades, put ont the flybar lock and my pitch measures -2 at midpoint and goes from -12 to +8 - basically off by -2 the entire head.

With all of this special care to leveling and measuring - why would something still be off and which rod should I adjust to move the center up? I always goof this up and end up chasing for hours.

My thoughts - I should move the entire swash up at center by adjusting all 3 cyclic servo rods. Is this the right way to go?

Thanks for any tips

Yeah you need to adjust the rods from the servos. The height from swash to frame at zero pitch(mid stick) should be 10mm.... I'm not sure what you measured wrong but when I go by the book it is dead on...even tracking is right on.

Set it up following Finless' instructions on the CCPM videos.

It sounds like tightening the short links to the blade grips one revolution might do it though.

Sure enough - moving each servo link out turn out centered me at -10/+10 (within a half degree).

If you are already at 0 pitch at mid stick, then you need to increase travel on the laggin side.

Edit: Ops, i missed your "-2 at midstick", i guess my post is not relavant now! :D
