Doing final setup on my Lepton, Kora 15-14, Evo 4s 3700. Hey guys, I 'm getting +/-12 on my collective with 3-4 mm engagement of pins in washout, pretty good there. I've got 45% swash pitch AFR and all servo travels set at maximum 150 in my new Spectrum DX7. 0-100% pitch curves in idle up, 50% stick is center and 0% pitch- just perfect! My big question which I've never asked anyone before is do I adjust my cyclic to not bind with the stick in the corner or with only single axis hard over? Using single axis to set cyclic limits I can get 45% elevator and aileron travel (swash setup menu) which gives 8-9 degrees of elevator and aileron measured with my pitch guage. I have to roll the swash travel back to 35% to get no stalled servos at the extremes of stick in corner. This only gives me +/- 6 degees of elevator and +/- 7 degrees of aileron. I know when I fly the thing'll probably end up increasing the swash travel up to 45% to get high roll and flip rates like I did on my Raptor50 and Trex450 but I hate the thought that I may be stalling my servos regularly while I fly. I've heard of cyclic rigs for transmitters but never saw one and don't really want one... Any expert advice on that whole mess would be greatly appreciated. Eric
