I need help with the radio setup on my Concept 46Vr. I am completely new to helis and am just finished building the heli and I need help with radio setup. I have a futaba 8U super and Gy501 gyro. Is there any websites that could help me get this setup??? Also today I noticed the swashplate is tilted to the left a lot when all sticks are in neutral. How should I fix this. A huge amount of left trim is needed to fix it. I read somewhere that lot's of trim is reduces server travel. Will making the rod that connects to the swashplate longer have any bad side affects. It is 27mm at the moment just like the manual says. Any help you can give me will be appreciated. Sorry for all the stupid newbie questions

What you want to do is center all your trims and sub trims. The take off the servo horns and make sure they are put on completely square to the control arms. Then you adjust the swash plate by either making the control linkages shorter or longer, if you make one side longer you have to make the other side shorter. You pretty much want your trims centered and have everything square with each other. The closer everything is to perfect the better your heli will fly. Also make sure your ball links aren't too tight.

Unless you ask something dumb!
LOL, J/K. Better to ask and get it done right than to not ask and end up with a pile of metal, wood, and plastic.
