RE: Blade 400 pitch and bind question?
Go to Helifreak and watch the Finless Bob set-up video. He's got the most comprehensive video instruction available for setting up a CCPM heli.
1. The blades need to at the 3 and 9 o'clock position with the nose being 12 o'clock.
2. The fly-bar paddles must be held level. Use your Eflite blade crutch mounted on the boom to hold the rear paddle ....stick it in the upper slot.
3. Your pitch gage must be referenced to and aligned with the level fly-bar when setting the pitch for each blade.
4. With the throttle stick in the middle, your pitch should read zero for each blade. (fly-bar paddles must be level also)
5. Get help if you don't know what you're doing.
If you've already viewed and understand Finless Bob's video then Sokal's video will make more sense.
