The most important step in flying a R.C. Helicopter is the setup. If your helicopter is not setup right the bird will tip side to side, frontward or backward, or the tail could spin out of control. You can see the significance of a good setup.
1. The first step in setting up a R.C. Helicopter.
RC Helicopter
· Make sure all servos are provocative in the right direction When you move the right side stick right the swash plate will tilt right etc for transmit and back.
· Make sure the throttle is strict and the it does not need reversed in the radio also called the Tx.
2. Now that the servos are provocative in the right direction we need to center the servos.
· Turn on radio then plug in receiver make sure the motor is unplugged if working on electric helicopter.
· Move the throttle stick to half way this get all your servos to the half way position.
· Now we want to find the servo horn that will line up 90 degrees with center keep provocative till you find one that is close or dead on make sure to put in the screw when you find the one that works.
3. Next is to level the swash plate you can buy a tool for your size helicopter or you can eyeball it. · To get the swash plate level adjusts the arms that run from the servos to the swash plate.
4. Next we need to make sure the washout block is level.
· The washout block is between the swashplate and the fly bar cage.
· Make sure that both arms are level with each other if not adjust the arm that comes from the fly bar cage until level. · Next we need to make sure the fly bar arms are level
· Make sure the fly bar arms are parallel with each other if not adjust the rod that attaches to the swash plate.
5. Next is to make sure the pitch on the main blades is set.
· When at center stick throttle make sure the main blades are at zero pitch
· Full stick should be between +10 degrees to +12 degrees depending on flying style
· bottom stick should be -10 degrees to -12 degrees.
Now we have our head setup and ready to go. With all level and working together we should have a carport flying machine this setup gives up the best occasion to get off the ground. This still some things to reconsider in setup like pitch curves Throttle curves . Radio setup in general but that is a branch by itself.
The tail setup can be tricky sometimes I have found the best way to setup the tail is in rate mode get your servo centered then make sure your rod is adjusted I set my tail with a few degrees pitch on tail pushing the nose right too compensate for the main motor thrust on start up and to hold the nose right in a hover. That about all the information I can give not knowing the servo and gyro that is being used.
That all to the basic setup of your helicopter have fun be safe and keep it in the air have a great day!
