Help Using PITCH GAUGE - Any Videos??
Any thoughts appreciated...searched for videos without success.
Looking for a video of how to use Pitch Gauge (not radio set up). Seems like you need 4 hands to hold everything straight if you don't have a flybar locking device in order to make readings or adjustments. Also, my Beam E4's main mast has a built in 10 degree forward cant while at rest on the skids. I assume that I still must make all adjustments on blade angles with against a flybar that is 90 degrees to the mast. Also please comment! My gyro is mounted on the frame...which is 0 degrees (parallel with the deck) when on skids... Would it be better to give my gyro a 10 degree forward cant...to stay in perfect alignment with the mast? Thank you, Onepiece Last edited by onepiece; 04-25-2012 at 09:45 AM..

One video on how to use a pitch gauge. As for your other questions, someone else will have to chime in. I'm too new to this hobby to comment on anything else. |
