lepton pitch range question

[avatar71]

I am only getting -9/+9 on my pitch. I have messed with the links to try to get more but either the washout hits the bottom of the head block or I just take some positive from the negative (eg it goes to -8/+10).

the only thing that I can see would make the dif is using the inner holes on the grips :?:

I noticed that Finless mentioned that he was getting -11/+11... how'd you do that?

your thoughts?

thanks in advance,
dave

Did you adjust you're swash mixing to get more pitch? I easily get +-11 on mine using the stock setup.

the problem I have is that, the stock link lengths dont allow that with me.

How much of the head block pins extend into the washout base at -11?

PLEASE IGNORE THIS POST, THE AUTHOR IS A DUMMY.

2 minutes on the AFR and I got -11/+11 no problem. I think I should change my name to "mr-shortcut" from avatar71.

Almost every problem I have is due laziness or impatience. Like "the blades are hirobo's, I'm sure the don't need balancing" or "so what if the swash links arent equal... I'll just use the trim". Or my favorite, "just one more flight..." That should really read "since I have had a great day of flying, I think it's time I ruin it and crash my $#!+."

Can anyone fix me? I keep telling myself that I'll be more patient and thorough yet, the same ole' me keeps coming out... :arggg:

...ok, I feel better now...
