Default B400 flybar paddle cntrl frame rod

Can some one Please tell me what is changed when you adjust the linkage rod to the flybar paddle cntrl frame rod. I am trying to change my negitive pitch from - 7 in normal mode to - 3. Thanks

I dont know about changing the linkages, But You may want to use the pitch settings in the radio to adjust the pitch where you want it.

You have to make sure the heli is set up mechanically correct so that you have zero pitch at half stick and +/-10 at the end points with a curve of 0-25-50-75-100.
Don't change the pitch curve to compensate for incorrect CCPM setup.

Adding on to what Wolfpackin said, If you have more negative pitch move the swashplate equally with all the outside pushrods. I think on the B400 you would move it down to get more positve pitch. Then the opposite to get negative pitch if you had more positive pitch. I don't own a B400 so anyone correct me if I am wrong. Then once you have equal positive and negative pitch use the pitch curve to get -3 degrees in Normal Mode.
