Got my servos (8717s) installed and hooked up all the links. All links were made to the manual lengths.

I had to adjust the lengths of the front swash servos (2 and 6) a bit.

Once I got those links setup, I found I had about -3 at mid stick. Swash was level. Two turns on each short mixer link and all was well.

Using the settings in the manual on the X9303 I ended up with +/-14.5 degrees of pitch and just a touch of binding at full collective and in the corners with cyclic. WOW.

I am really liking this build.

It's a very good machine, the build it straight forward. Follow the directions as per the manual and the machine will come out near perfect with perhaps just a few clicks of trim.

I am running mine with 14+/- and the machine just goes and goes.

I am working on a flybarless version of the Vibe 50 as we speak and did a little redesign of the fron battery tray and gyro mount, should be killer!
