Hi all,

I did know this, but don't remember now. I just finished redoing the setup on my Hawk Pro and everything is zero'd.

I am getting +10/-8 deg. Which linkages do I adjust to correct this?

-Thanks

I could be wrong

lower your swash

use pitch linkage by shortening it

well something is wrong somewhere then,,

start with the Tx settings,,

is your Collective's ATV set the same on each side (100%) ??

is your Collective's Sub-Trim set lower than 20% ?? (if your Sub-Trim is set to high your Servo will turn farther one way than the other)

is you Collective Servo Arm set at 90 degrees at 0 pitch ?? (half throttle/50% on the curve)

is your Pitch Arm level at 0 degrees of pitch ?? (half throttle/50% on the curve)

Yes, from the servos to the swash, everything is 90 deg. at center stick so it must be from the swash up.

Everything in the radio has been reset.

well let me tell you something, the Pitch Arm may look level, but if it's not level to the boom at 0 pitch then you could get a difference on pitch as you have,,

or it could be interaction with the Elevator's front Bellcrank..

got it. Rechecked all the links and made a couple adjustment now I have -9/+9 deg. Pitch

this is what I flew with all of last year and should be fine for sport flying - yes?

I can't find the post but somebody had pics of a perfect setup

I mean everything was bang on
the bell mixers on the blade were level
the flybar and hiller were were perfectly level
everything was 90* and level

wish I could find it those pics

I can't find it but. it's not in the sticky uptop

at least you got it figured out

never had a OS32 but if your using a OS37 10/10 is no problem
or even +10/-5 for sport flying

but I learned that normal mode is only good for engine set-up forward flight but if you want to flip your heli you want to be in idle-up
