| Hello Jessie,
Buy some el cheapo reflectorized sticker strips from an auto supply (you know, the ones who sell to jeepneys and tricycles). Cut a small 1x1 inch square and stick it to only one of the blades near the end.
Cut another smaller piece and put it on the same blade grip holder. This means if ever you remove the blades you know which blade goes to which blade holder so you don't have to adjust blade tracking over and over (assuming you do remove the blades from the heli after a day's flying).
To adjust blade tracking on a ZXX;
- spool up the heli on the ground, don't let it take off if you're not absolutely comfortable with hovering yet since if you attempt to watch blade tracking while hovering, you might end up crashing if you're staring at the blades instead of the whole helicopter.
- If the blade with the sticker is ABOVE the other blade, shorten the pushrod connecting the blade grip to the seesaw arm. Make adjustments in increments of half turns on the ball link at first until you get it tracking the same. b
- You will get the idea once you've done it a gazillion times. |
