ok, by 3 position switch, i mean that the switch had three set spots, one of which i set to kill the engine, and the second was for idle down, and the third was full open. and yes, my intent was just to move the collective pitch, but as i found out my dad's idea did not prove to be effective for anything but a low hover. i have since switched that and made a y-adaptor and hooked both CP and throttle to the same channel so they move porportional (using a 6ch airplane radio).

i took off the flybar weights, and had to put on Hot Dog 3D paddles when i rebuilt it, but there are two mounting holes, one in the center, and one more towards the front. i have it in the center one, would the other have faster response?

The Raptor has a JR 642 heli radio. im not sure of all the functions so someone might wanna look that up. It also is using a GWServo Gyro. mechanical i think...maybe piezo. either way.
