Default RE: Proper linkage setup on blade CX?

I recently moved my control rods to the extreme holes on the servo horns. If you can hover for a full battery, then try doing this - you'll be amazed at the control this will give you, but feather your contol in carefully so you don't crash the blades. FYI, I heated an ice pick to carefully enlarge the holes in the horns to replace the rods.

After doing this, replace the horns at 90 degs., and unscrew the ball ends about 3 full turns to level the swash.

A good side effect is that this will give you a lot more trim control.

Anyway, this worked for me - hope it helps some of you.

p.s. - Nick, if you got the new boom from Stersman, you'll be very please with it and the new skids.
