Presetting tail rotor blades
I have a Hirobo Shuttle. Do I add some mechanical pitch for compensation of torque or not? 90 deg arm equals a little pitch (5 deg or so)?

The best rule of thumb tends to be center the slider at mid servo. This way the gyro has equal travel on each side. Design of the heli usually takes into account a little pitch for counter torque. That said, some set up tail pitch to be 0 at mid servo and have no problem. Remember it's the gyro that will try keep the counter-torque in check. only real difference the pre-pitch makes is to the max rudder speed in each direction.
