Drawing #29

 

 

 

 


 

Note:  Servo horns were replaced with wheels.  With the wheels I was able to set the ball joints vertically without having to use any "TRIMS".

 

 

Step 1

Adjust the bellcranks for the following servos for vertical or horizontal positioning. 

 

Remove the "wheel" from the servo and find a position where the holes for the ball joints will natural sit as close to 90°.

Elevator servo.

   

Aileron servo.

   

Pitch servo

   
 

Step 2

   

Adjust pushrods 1 as indicated on the manual to level the swash plate.

   
 

Step 3

   

Adjust pushrods 2 to center the autorotation bearing within the brass lined slot.

   
 

Step 4

   

Adjust double ball links to 42mm.

   
 

Step 5

   

Adjust ball links until mixer arms are leveled.

   
 

Step 6

   

Blade #1.  Leveled at 50% throttle at 0° pitch.

   

Blade #2.  Leveled at 50% throttle at 0° pitch.

 

   

This is the initial set up for the main rotor.  Set the left stick at 50%.  When the pitch is at -10° the throttle should be at 0°.  When the pitch is at +10° the throttle should be at 100%.
