Blade tracking and adjustment questions
AxeCP
I have a blade tracking issue (no, I didn't test it with my shins this time!!!) and I'm wondering what order I should test parts in. Since the feathering spindle is weak and easy to remove, I thought I would test that first. Next would be the main shaft - is there an easy way (without an runout gauge) to test whether the main shaft is bent? Preferably without removing it since it is such a PITA to remove! I also read that adjusting the linkage from the blade grip to the flybar carrier will correct tracking errors if there is nothing bent - true?
Also, is there anything about how to trim it! I have to add about 2-3 clicks of forward cyclic and would like to mechanically trim this out so I don't need to add any trim. What about setting the trim on the other axes? My goal is a hands-free hover.
