Default RE: Help on Honey Bee FP setup

restinpieces,
okay what I do to level the swash is, I set the heli on a flat surface like a table and then I use a small level and I hold it up to my swash and I center the bubble, then I eyeball the bottom of the plate with the top of the level and if they aren't parallel I adjust the push rods until it is, I also do the same thing going perpendicular to the heli and level the plate side to side. you HAVE to make sure the servos are centered when you do this.

maxtheknife,
I wasn't offended but it did seem like you asked for help then disregarded the help when you got it (maybe it wasnt that good of help?) and was set on doing it the "wrong" way. I guess that wasn't your meaning, so no worries there. I am pretty new to this heli stuff too and I went the wrong way when I decided to learn and I just try to help people to NOT do it the way I did and try so save others from the money pit syndrome.

Hueyguy,
Hey, glad to hear it helped someone and I was worried that my instructions were really bad after maxtheknife's post.

maxtheknife, I will gladly try to clearify my post if you would like.

I fix my link balls by gluing them back on with CA then wrap the base with thread and then soak the thred in CA and let dry, works really good.
