Well, I'm starting a thread on this site for Tommy's (TR911) head comparison for the 500 size helicopters . . . I'm still the first and only to post at the other place . . . and now I'm the first to post here
. . . (That's gotta be worth something!)
1: Leveling heli with my IPod and "EZ Level+" app
2: Low Stick / Flybar
3: Low Stick / Main Blade
4: Mid Stick / Flybar
5: Mid Stick / Main Blade
6: High Stick / Flybar
7: High Stick / Main Blade
I use a "String" Level on the Flybar and one in the blade holder.
I'm set for 10 degrees pos/neg maximum pitch
My servo to swash control rods are a bit thicker. I mistakenly grabbed a pack of Trex 600 rods from the LHS. They were the only ones in the pack the same length as the 500's, but thicker/beefier . . . I kind of like that
(
Camera was not level, have to use my photo editor to level the pics
)
