Default Belt CP Question


Okay, just got this thing, took a whole battery just to dial in everything correctly. Hovers very smooth! I measured all the connecting rods and links figuring it will be easier to repair when I crash it and have to do a fairly extensive rebuild. Am I correct in doing this? I know on one of my CP's they have a general length for all the links to get you close. This thing is a bit more involved I noticed and thought this would be a good thing to do. Your thoughts and thanks!

As long as you don't adjust your servos after a crash it should work out. Personally I never do that because I like tuning my helicopters.

because the esky tx doesn't have sub trims it's difficult to get the servo arms at 90 deg so having the length of the links won't help if you replace a servo (it won't center in the exact same location). but it's not a bad idea to do.
