found a problem with sjm 325

[neo187i]

Hello freakers I have had my 325 a week now and all was well until I tried to squeeze some more pitch out of it.At first I set up for +10,0,-10 and it was fine,but today tried to take it up to +12,0,-12 and found a problem.With this pitch setup at full positive when you try to cyclic left and right the links that are attached to the flybar bind on the s shape bracket which hold the blade grips.The bottom plastic part of the link which attaches to the ball on the swash binds on the bracket.I then noticed that the part had been pre cut so it is shorter than the top part of the link but I still had to trim some more of it.Be careful if anyone else has same problem though as there is not much of the plastic left to play with before the plastic part falls of the link.If antone else has a better solution would gratfully like to hear it.thanks

I see what your saying on my SJM, Im going to try some Align links and rods, they are a bit thinner.

How many degrees of cyclic pitch are you using?

[scubas00755511]

Dyno Master I have 12* +/- . And have the potential for more. I got your message this morning, are you free tomarrow?

i amng around 6 degrees on the cyclic this must have been a forseen problem otherwise why would the links be pre cut.thanks

I asked this question in the other SJM325 thread, Scott never answered before it got locked.

Scott mentioned the RCT version have more pitch, how is RCT's version getting more pitch? I read a few threads on how the plastic link is hitting parts in the head thus limiting the pitch travel. Has RCT resovled this? How about the travel on cyclic at full pitch? (degrees)

Is the the kit version exactly the same as the combo version minus the motor and esc? Are the 4pc tool set included now instead of the 3pc?

i have replaced the links with align ones now and it has solved the problem am running +12,0,-12 with plenty of room for more so what scott said is wrong they have the same pitch potencial in my view.thanks
