Its only needed if you plan to 3d .....It allows more total pitch. It does make a difference, even though you only end up moving the ball in 2.0 mm(guessing here) when all is done to make it work...
Yes, you have to reverse the arms, and I had to still shim the arm out, for the rods coming from the swashplate to the mixer...It will hit the flybar bearing plate...
When you increase your total pitch like this, it allows you to cut the total throw down, inorder to have clearence for the movement of the old ele arm on the mast...You really have to optimize this, so you can still have throw on your ele, without binding and produce the results you want...
I had the old 1:1 mixing arm...You could, I guess use the the double ball on the mixing block, and do like a Fury....I had these newer arms given to me, so I used them...Even doing it this way, I don't think you would get as much as using the gold arms...
You will just have to fiddle, and try it...I sure could tell a difference...Hopefully some more folks that have more time on the machine than I, can futher help you...
Regards,
Bill |
