Pitch Throw

[jpolidore]

I have a question about my pitch servo on my Stinger 50. I have the ATV set at 145% on the top and bottom to get 10 degrees is this normal? at 100% I get about 6 degrees? Do I need a stronger pitch servo? I have a DS821 in there now just for break-in and me to get used to flying this big bird. I was also thinking of upgrading the mixer arms to aluminum will this help? Thanks Guys had my first hover today around 8:45pm, gonna finish break-in and fly tomorrow. This thing is awesome...

I had the same problem using the DS821's. Installed a HD servo arm and put the ball 18 mm from the center hole. No problem running 11 degrees of pitch with the ATV at 100%

Thanks Wren, I thought I could increase the servo arm length therfore increasing throw and fix the problem. I will try that first.

Moving the ball out is the correct way to do it.

I accomplished the same thing by picking up the push-pull upgrade for a Rappy. I tell you its alot faster than before adn I can go up tp about 13 degrees, so now I am running 108% travel for 11 degrees.
