| The 50 is like the TRex so maybe some of you gusy can help me on this too.
I have been flying helis for a couple of years now so I bought a Gohbee 50 to get a little more advanced. But I have come across a problem with the collective that does not seem right.
I set the collective for +10 to -10. In Idle 2 I can go +10 to -10 and Idle 1 +9 to -9. I am flying with carbon fiber blades and I have the Hyper 50. I am running a throttle jockey and a head spead of about 1950 RPM.
Problem: With my pitch gage the pitch is -10 to +10. However, when I fly the heli, it acts as though I have -12 to +7. When I give full throttle to climp out from a hover, the heli goes up very slowly with no bogging of the engine. When I go inverted and attempt to climp out, the engine bogs out and I have to reduce pitch to regain rotor rpm. So statically I have to set the pitch for -8 to +12. I have checked for slop in the system but it does not seem bad. I owned a Hawk sport before and I had no trouble setting the pitch on it.
Why is this happening?
Thanks, Gary |
