Default Flipping the main blade grips
What do I need to know about flipping the main blade grips? I'd like to get leading edge control.

I have a v2 with micro heli grips that I got used and I'm not very familar with Aligns but these are not leading edge, the ball links clips hooked up on trailing edge.

Nevermind, I'm totally wrong. Guess that's another way the FBL heads differ from stock.

It will probably work, but if I'm not mistaken you will also have to flip the flybar see-saw to get the linkages to line up. And you might need to reverse swash mix to negative or positive value.

I'm not sure if you'll get a noticable improvement in filght.
