UPDATE on the Servo Linkages post I put up earlier:

- With the second set of linkages I bought, I removed the stock ones, set them aside.
- I used a micro drill bit and a hand chuck and increased the size of third hole in on each stock servo to the diameter required to insert the stock linkages and have them articulate smoothly. I want to say 1/16 or 1/32".
- Inserted the new linkages, and adjusted the length to zero out the swashplate.
- Used the aforementioned trick to disable the motors and 'idle up/down' to display assumed zero pitch, and adjust linkages accordingly.
= Success!

I posted in another thread that I picked up a TP1320, TP205 Blancer, and a Electrifly PolyCharge 30$ basic charger, and I'd have to say that, considering that I already went through several sets of main rotor blades, the new battery + reduced servo arm throw = n00b pulling off 5 second bursts of wobbly to stable hover in a /tiny/ room without further damage. (Tiny can be defined as about the same as the 5-6' diameter space before impact with everything)

If anyone's feeling a little on the tinkering side, if you have an hour to spare I highly recommend this mod. Just may take a while to get a level swashplate and zero pitch back is all.

Cheers!
