Auto pitch setup for a Freya

[tnreefguy]

On my freya I am running a push-pull collective setup with -10+10 degrees. Is there any way to increase the max +pitch range for better autoing but still keep a linear curve. For example in Idle1, 2,3 have -10+10 but in throttle hold have -10+12. Oh buy the way my radio is a 9c. I thought about setting up a -12+12 curve and then limiting the amount with the pitch curve but that would make the chopper pitchy i thing with it eliminating four degrees. Any comment welcome.

I might be wrong but with a 9c the only way to do it is to do the 12 12 and lower the pitch curve. If the 9z you could just make the atvs different in the flight modes. For curiousity why do you want -12 on autos?? 10 is plenty!!

From what I have read some people will run as much as 12 on the positive side. I just like trying different things to see how I like them. Just personal preference. :D

You probably won't believe this but you really don't need all of that pitch range. -9 to plus 9 is good for a 61 with +11 on the top for autos. Most of the time I don't even use all of the collective for autos. Linear pitch curves are a myth anyway, just like linear throttle curves. Each heli, engine pipe, fuel, plug and setup will be just slightly different from upright to inverted. I don't even run the same pitch on the flip side as I do on the upright side. I usually use what I need and the same goes for throttle.

My recommendation is to have just a little more top end pitch in throttle hold and be done with it.

It also depends on what blades you are running on how much pitch you need (can use) on the top end of hold. I only run 10 or 11 max on my machines in hold.
