Does anyone REALLY know?
Chopper,
I stand corrected...You are right. The paddles are moving at a higher speed the further they are from the head.
What I was trying to say is: That by moving simply adding a longer flybar, you will not see an increase in overall roll rate. The machine will just be more sensative around center, and perhaps feel a little faster. A shorter flybar will make the heli feel sluggish and slow, but will roll and flip at the same rate.
