Default RE: Flybar rigging and tracking

i am gathering it is a collective pitch heli if so put the stick at half way or zero degrees on the the main rotors and level your flybars, paddles from there also make sure before you level them your swashplate is level both from the front and side of your heli if you do this and everything else is correct it will fly beutifully. also you are correct in saying that the paddles do move during flight only not as much as the main blades, but they only move during cyclic movments and aeliron movents if you increse or decreses the collective they do not move they remain level

actully can someone spread some light as to why our helis have flybars and paddles, what purpose do they serve?
