| Hello
I have just finished setting up and test flying a Synergy N9 with flybarless head and V-stabi and have some questions regarding flying characteristics.
1. It seems with the v-stabi N9 it is difficult to maintain a fast, level, locked- in pirouette. What I mean by this is there seems to be communication to the pitch and roll axis. The heli wobbles around in the pirouette and it requires a lot more cyclic correction than the same heli with a flybar. I have checked the calibration of the sensor with the calibration plug-in and it is perfect. Is this something that can be resolved or is it a characteristic of the v-stabi?
2. Another unnerving flight characteristic is the initial cyclic pop. When a full deflection cyclic input is given, the initial angular velocity of the heli is very fast and it then slows into a consistent roll rate. That is, if you start stationary flips, the initial rotation (90-180 degrees) is very rapid, then it seems the gyro sees the angular velocity is too fast and slows the roll rate to the desired value. What parameter can I change to make the heli more consistent/linear?
3. Is it possible to trim the heli mechanically. That is when test hovering in classic mode is it OK to trim the heli by adjusting the length of the pushrods to the swashplate, rather than the cyclic trim on the flight parameters page.
Any help or advice would be much appreciated. |
