Burnin,

Flipping the blades is independant of the radio system you are using. It is very easy, and IMO, worth the effort.

Sand off the pitch indicator on top of the grips (which will soon be on the bottom of the grips) and simply rotate the grips 180 degrees. You may want to put a spacer in the ball on the grip and the washout arm. This helps the short pitch llink get a straight run and prevents any binding on the see saw arm. Pretty simple to do, you can see a picture and some more informaiton on my website at

Goto the Vibe Log and you will see pictures

Let me know if you have any questions

What is your pitch curve, mine seem to run between 40 & about 65. Either I did it incorectly or I'm not good enough yet.
