V-bar setup.

[itsparks]

So guys, i bought the logo 500 3d V-bar kit, the Jr 8717's 550mm blades and a 8amp bec, as i'm waiting for the v-bar electronics i have gone ahead and built the Logo 500 with the cf tail.

Id like to know if there are any tips out there that i can read up on for setting up this heli with the electronics, and preping the heli in this state, ie there is a metal piece in the middle above the swash plate, where does that go ?

should i plug in my receiver and set the pitch ? how do i set the pitch now with no vbar, ? id like to do as much as possible at this point, is this a good idea ?

Thanks guys.

You can do a full mechanical setup.
I'd do it with the recomended horn setting for the v-bar.
Get the rudder set to center of the throw.

Then your going to need the v-bar setup.

There is a logo plugin in the new software, should give you a good start.

I used the 600n plugin , checked the swash directions , and leveled the swash at top and bottom on the expert menu. Other than that i did monor tweaks. Once i learn more i'll tweak more.

Im not sure what system im going to be getting, it might be the vbar system, or the other one. Ill wait it out and see.

I'm thinking of the sk360 for my trex 500.
They have there gen 2 out now , said to have the takeoff tipover fixed up.

Finless is going to do vids on the 500 conversion. Going to wait on that.

Either system you need to do a mechanical setup on.
