Welcome to the insanity...I mean fun.

First of all, are you sure they sent an AR6200? The AR6100e is the usual RX for the Blade400. It doesn''t matter but I''m curious.

If you followed the DX6i setup for the B400 you should have a Normal pitch curve of 35-42.5-50-75-100 and that should give you lift at about 3/4 stick. That''s where you want to lift, not half stick. Half stick should be zero pitch (50%) on the pitch curve.

If you''re sure that air is blowing up at half stick then your mechanical pitch does not match the curve if it is set as above. You need a pitch guage to make sure the pitch matches the curve.

As far as the Hitec on the tail you will have to reverse the rudder channel in the TX Reverse menu and reverse the switch on the gyro.
