| I run 1500 rpm head speed on my Mozzies, or there abouts! I set them up from the start with about 5.5 / 6 degrees at half stick, and approx. half throttle barrel opening. This is a good ball-park and they will hover near enough at half stick with this. I then fine tune the throttle or pitch slightly with the hover throttle/pitch digital buttons (Sanwa RD6000). Mid stick is round about 55% throttle, 58% pitch looking at my radio. All my models vary slightly in the set-up but not far from these figures. I found the 10% expo on ail. and elev. was good as well, with 5% on rudder. Just makes it feel better.
If you are feeling flush, I would upgrade to the longer boom / belt and a longer set of blades. Standard blades from the Sport are 54 or 55 cms. Plenty of cheap wooden blades about that size, for less than 20 quid. Booms are cheap , not sure on belt price, but won`t be a fortune. You will know, seeing as how you`ve had a few !! (sorry Mate)
The longer blades certainly will make it hover better. I have gone to 60 cm sets on 2 of my Mozzies, they fly great on `em. The Robinson I`ve got has 58 cm NHP`s on it, cut down from a set of 60 class blades, big cord, high lift, semi`s. (used to have a Lazer 70 in the Heli so it needed some help)
