Hi, I just changed the links/servo arms lengths to extreme 3D settings as per manual, but I had a problem with the pitch rod.
Mine is a R60, but I guess the R90 would be the same since the airframe seems to be the same, I mention this because it seems like 60's are not that common any more.
According to the manual the length of the pitch arm should go from 18mm to 19mm and the pitch rod from 77.5mm to 73.5mm. (I guess they are talking about collective pitch here)
If I do this there's no way I can get to +10 -10 collective.
Does anybody knows if this is a typo????
Or it's just my dumbness kicking in one more time????

1. Horn at 90 deg ,,pitch at 0 deg , Take a measurement. that is your pushrod length.

2. Collective tray all the way down (Idle up 1) Pushrod measured above, attached to collective tray ball link.
Stick Full negitive(all the way down),,,,, push rod will line up with proper hole in the horn.

In case I confused Ya here is a video at the bottom of the page for the R 90...Same Thing :wink:

Ok, That's basically what I did, I just adjusted the pushrod length to match pitch.
I just wanted to be sure that I wasn't screwing up.
Thanks,
