I just got done throwing on my blades to take degree measurements for the first time... I am using the medium response settings and set up the head as per the supplement
I could not believe what I saw....
at mid stick my blades were at exactly 0 degrees on both blades...
then i check positive and negative... and my jaw dropped...
15+ and 15-... No wonder this thing moves through the air...
One fine machine Rusty!!!!

You might want to change your swash settings and bring that pitch closer to 12 degrees or so.

I know the REALLY experienced guys with magical collective management skills can get away with 13 and 14 degrees, but I've never heard of anyone even setting up for 15 degrees.

I got a helicopter for my girlfriend,
It was a good trade!

Patriot,I agree with rockohaulic my freind,back that bad boy way down to about 11+ 11- for the first few flights till you get used to it bud.This thing is insane at 13+ 13-.After you feel the response it puts out you will know right away where you will need to be.Oh,man you are gonna love the response
I was running mine at 14+ 14- and it did wanna bog the engine at times and have since backed it down to 13.5+ 13.5-.I'm a happy camper my freind

Nice install dude! I like the way you mounted the RX to the side to free up some room on the electronics shelf.

Does there happen to be any way to strap that RX down in that position? That would be cool if there was!

Looks good, buddy. One more thing to consider. You should also try to secure the battery around the front/rear as well. If you like to piro, the battery may want to sling out. Just a thought.

For the battery - you could just do 1 layer of double sided sticky foam, then Velcro, then strap the whole thing down. She isn't going anywhere like that!
