I know this has been asked and I've even read it but I'm a little foggy as to weather people are doing with the stock 3d paddles or they're actually buying different ones then modifying them.
I've been flying my Venture with a os32 and now a TT39 for about two years and I've done several mods to it, but, I still have some pitchyness in FFF. Has anyone completely solved this problem? I know I've rounded the leading edges a little. Do I need to sand a little more off the leading edge or do I just need to change the paddles to something else?
What do you guys think?

Thanks

Where does the heli balance at? Most Ventures I have seen, in stock form, are tail-heavy. I made a carbon fiber shelf to move the battery pack right up in the front of the canopy, and It helped a whole bunch. I am running KSJ paddles with the leading edges slightly rounded, and my Venture is not pitchy at all.

to check the balance you can pick it up by the flybar, it doesn't matter if it is facing for&aft (it will pivot on the seesaw bearings) or out the side (flybar will roll on you fingers), just hold the flybar close to the head so you don't bend it. The venture will be tail heavy in stock form and it doesn't really hurt anything but I like it better with it sitting level when you check it like I said at the beginning (balance point at the mainshaft).
Good luck.

BALANCE

Seems simple enough and seems like something that I've checked before, but I'll check it again. It's really not too bad, but it's not perfect either, you know what I mean.

Thanks guys, I'll tell you what I find.
