Beam tracking

[derrick]

Hi all need a bit of help, after crashing last weekend i have not been able to get the blades to track. After fitting new mainshaft, flybar,blade grips, feathering shaft. rechecking all links tried two sets of blades both pairs balanced perfectly, Tracking is still out and i'am a bit lost as to what do next, As anyone come across this before and if so how to cure the problem.
Looking forward to hearing from a few of you.

Have you checked/changed the dampers? Just a thought.

[glen_j]

did you put the bearings back in the blade grips the correct way round? this could cause your problem

My lads blades wouldn't track after a change of feathering shaft after a slight ding, changed the dampers and all sorted now, i think a bent shaft must of damaged the dampers

Thanks for all the tips got it sorted very slight damage on one of each pairs of blades, Matched up the two good blades now perfect, The only problem now is getting a new set of blades before sunday. We ain't got a descent model shop round here so i am going to have to use what i have. But it don't leave me much room for any mishaps. lol.
