help with hawk pro
new to this heli stuff so bare with me
i bought this from tower hobbies and put it all together and everything works fine but one thing
i have all futaba gear in this thing with standard servos but when i use the pitch controlit seems
like the swash plate is way to tight against the shaft and it don't want move and when it does it
is vary jittery and jumpy, i have greased everything and when i move it by hand it seems vary
tight still does any one have a fix for me?

Take a piece of crocus cloth or emery paper, and sand off the paint on the shaft, where the swashplate rides, maybe that will help free it up. Good luck

Yup , you'll be fine. Also , make sure your not binding up in the anti rotation bracket if you have one. Sometimes you have to take a dremel tool and open that up some as wel.

also when you get done sanding the paint off take some wd40 and spray it down and dtick the can in your field box its good to spray it like every 3 or 4 flights to keep the dirt out of it ....
