  • Pitch arm

    Hi guy.
    need some help with the pitch setup on my rap 30 in raptor technique the ball is positioned on the inside in the manual it is on the outside which would you advise and could you advise on the pitch & throttle curve that I could use at the moment just doing hovers moving left & right.

    Allan,

    For your throttle and pitch curves read my PDF here:
    http://www.rcheliaddict.co.uk/setup-...ch-curves.html

    As for which hole.. it doesn't matter too much. The inner one will give you a greater range than the outer. For hovering this makes no odds.. at a later date you will need the greater range.

    My advice is use the inner hole and then use the instructions above and the transmitter functions to get the correct pitch readings on the blades.

    This saves you having to redo it all at a later date when you want more pitch for aerobatics.. it will simply be a transmitter adjustment away.

    Cheers

    Mark

      Do you mean the ball is positioned on the inside of the arm ie Towards the frames or outside the arm away from the frames mate?
      If that's what you mean then it doesn't matter as long as the control rod is not at too great an angle and at risk of the ball link popping off at the extremes of the movement.

      If it 'Squares' it up with it on the inside and the ball & link are not rubbing on anything then that's fine & vise versa.
      It doesn't matter either way as long as the deflection angle of the control rod isn't too great.
      Cheers,
