when ever i power the unit on, and once the servos center themselves, one servo arm is higher than the other! (comparing left and right servos) my guess is that this is the problem. how can i fix this?<div>-dave</div>

Don't use trim controls on the remote to level the swash plate.
use the linkages from the servo to the swash plate.
also make sure that nothing is broken and the inner piece of the swash plate is pressed/snapped in to the outer piece of the swash plate.

Klaze,
How do you level a swashplate...? by eye?
I have a 4g6 and have a very strong pull tot he left when it is in the air...
If I wanted to check theswash plate for leveling... does one do it by eye?

Center the trim buttons on the transmitter.
Remove the arm from the servo.
Turn on the transmitter and receiver, this puts the servos in their center position.
Reattach the arm to the servo with the arm level, and then check the position of the swash plate, which can be leveled by adjusting the length of the pushrod from the servo arm.

When centering servo arms disable the motor so you done get unexpected spool up, center the throttle stick, make sure there is no subtrim, trim. Find a servo arm that fits best to the servo so that the servo arm is 90 degrees to the servo its self. I think with the CCP you should be in idle up mode
