Hi fellow Vibe 50 flyers. I'm loving the Vibe. I had occasion to change out the servos from 9252 to BLS451 on the cyclic only. I noticed afterward that the positive pitch was +11, exactly what it was before the swap, and the negative is -12.5. Mmmmm. I'm not worried, just curious if anyone else has seen this before. I changed NOTHING in the radio. I have to assume it's the servos. Thoughts?

Generally when that happens, it's that hte mixing arms and washout arms aren't level.

So, center the arms and adjust for zero pitch, correct?

yep.get all the servos at 90,then get all the swash arms at 90,that should have the swash plate in the middle of travel.then at 50%throttle you should be 0 pitch.

Well, Eury nailed it. The washout arms were a little off. It's dead on now. Thanks.

Great, good to hear that was it. I've screwed up enough times and fought with things long enough that it's good to hear my experiences can save someone else trouble.
