Servo Horns Adjustment

[Hairball]

On my CO CO Lama there's a number of holes on the servo horns (is that what they're called?). I guess these are for when I have some experience and want a bit more, 'muscle,' in controling her. Now since these other holes are further out and assuming I'm smart enough to make sure I have the equal amount of threads showing on each likage, what other things should I be looking at? Do they (on each side) have to be one-or-more thread longer, or is this nit-picking? I'm having good flights with this, my first chopper but I want a bit more forward speed. Assuming (risky word) I'm not doing anything violent, is there a risk of co-ax blade-collision at higher speeds? All of this is based on my assumption that making these adjustments will give me extra speeds and any advice very welcome. Cheers guys.

Sounds like you've got the idea, but you'll probably have to retrim etc

yep be careful thou because you'll increase the chances of trashing the blades

as you say your getting into risky territory here! moving the links out one hole will make the heli more twitchyand as a mod is o/k. but wont make it any faster in f/f. the thread showing does not need to be the same they need to be adjusted to give you the best flight characteristic's (it sounds like yours are ok)
co axial heli's in fast forward flight are not the best ! and you will eventualy reach a speed where it will litraley fall out of the sky. this is preceded by the nose dipping violently and you have to be damn quick to recover it( full back both sticks and pray you dont get a blade strike then let go of right stick and try and gather it up again) it really is difficult to get right.
