Could someone help me with some set up procedures for this old bird ??
I purchased this thing brand new 11 years ago . I built the entire aircraft and the thing never would fly correctly . So I parked it and recently was introduced to a couple guys that fly helis and would'nt you know it i'm involved again . This time with some more understanding . Anyhow i'll cut the bullshitting out and get on with my questions .
I set the rear tail rotor up , pitch slider center of the shaft . Servo set at full travel . Now , when I left stick the rudder I have full travel . When I let off full left stick the slider isn't coming back to dead center . :arggg: When I right stick the rudder it is coming back to dead center of the shaft . The issue w/ left stick is about and 1/8 " . I don't understand wth is going on . If I full left stick the rudder and let off the stick , bump it to the right it is sitting at dead center . I don't see any binding of the linkage anywhere . Hell I don't even know if i'm setting the rudder up correctly or not . Help anyone ???? :dontknow
