Pitch Esky Honey Bee King 3
According to the manual for Esky Honey Bee King 3, the pitch for the rotor blades set to +7 and -7 degree. Most other collective pitch helicopters have their rotor blades set to +10 and -10 degree. Why Honey Bee King 3 is set this way?

RE: Pitch Esky Honey Bee King 3
I always setup for 10 to 12 degrees depending on the overall heli.
Dosn't seem like 7 would be enough for stunt work, would be fine for FF and Hovering.
However I checked the HBK 2 Manual again and that is what it calls for on that heli also.
Obviously it works fine for both helis.
I use a DX6i on my HBK 2 and 3 and have set everything up for 10 + and -

RE: Pitch Esky Honey Bee King 3
Thanx for replying. If I setup the pitch to 10 degree, will the helicopter turn slightly? Is the tail rotor can't get enough power to keep the helicopter straight?
