Thanks to the people that helped me out

A pitch guage will read both positive and negative pitch. You are turning the blades clockwise looking from the top. The leading edge should go up when the throttle goes up. It sounds like the pitch servo needs reversed in the radio. Make absolutly sure you have the throttle servo operating the proper way with the stick too. Throttle down the carb arm should be full clockwise and as you move it up it should move counter clockwise.

From your questions I'd strongly suggest you find a heli flyer near you to check your setup before you try it on your own. It also helps to have somone test fly it and trim it out for you and explane how it's done.

You can look here for somone local to you.

I tried it on my own with some not too sucessful results at times.

Good luck

Someone looked over it last weekend, the only thing i have to do is the pitch. Well i have to turn my blades counter clockwise inorder for the leading edge to be leading and that is the way the um.... little starter thing turn when it stops and becomes tight... Everything in this heli is switched up.!

The starter runs the opposite direction of the blades because of the gears. Trust me the blades spin clockwise looking from the top. You do have a Raptor right?

Take the blades off and turn them over. If you are using the factory wood ones be sure you glued the plastic grips on the ends.

So in the woodies, it is alright if that lead thing is sticking up? Yeah i have a raptor 30, so if they spin clockwise then that means all my picths are correct!
Hey do you have aol or msn im if so or if you don't e-mail me [email protected] and i could ask you a few more question, you have been a lot of help!

The lead weight should be on the bottom. The blunt edge of the blade is the leading edge not the sharp end.

please find somebody local to help you start flying !!! otherwise you will get very frustrated if things are not setup right. and it can be very dangerous as well !
