Skarn -> RE: pitch gauge (4/23/2008 2:30:21 PM)

Hello,
There is no setup for a pitch gauge. What you do is put it on one of your blades and you "eyeball" it against the flybar to get it level. It's hard to explain in a forum...
Ok, for example with the throttle stick at mid (50 percent throttle), you should have your heli setup for zero pitch. So with throttle at mid, adjust your pitch gauge so the pointer is at zero pitch. Then put it on one blade and eyball it so it's level with the flybar. If you have it setup correctly, it should be very close if not exactly level at zero pitch on the gauage. Depending on your pitch curves and how you set it up, the high stick should be around +10 or 11 and the low stick -10 or 11. So at high stick with the pitch gauge still on the blade, in order to get it level with the flybar, you will have to move the pointer on the pitch gauge...where that pointer ends up is your high stick positive pitch number. The inverse is true for the negative/low stick number.
Hope this helped,
Skarn
