Hawk Sport Help Needed
Guys,
I am totally confused about the pushrod setup on this bird. The quick build guide is giving lengths in MM which are different from the main manual which gives different lengths for each of the pushrods.
What do you guys follow ? Also if anyone can be so kind as to put the right lengths of all of the pushrods here it would be great. note I am a begginer so I guess I would go for the milder settings. Thanks.

You should be able to use the pics, which should be to scale. just match the rods up with them. You might have to do some minor adjusting on your final setup, depending on servo's and what horns you use. generally with century the pics are correct when their is a discrepency. I don't have the sport but they should be good.

Sorry, on all the other manuals I have seen they are. you can download the SE or the IV manual and give them a try. on my SE 1 they are as follows.
bellmixer to seesaw 33mm
ail bellcrank to swash 54mm
washout to flybar 61
throttle 103
bell mixer to swash 112
collective 101
elv 132
ail 158
these measurements are from tip to tip on the ball links

Different lengths because if you read carefully you will find one is measured from center to center of the ball links and the other is from outside to outside (total length) of the ball links.
