Low pitch range on 600LE

[kenny.c]

We set the 600le's to 12 degrees......both running OS55....and feel great.

I watched Finless Bob's setup vids for the 600N and he manages to get 14 degrees of pitch in both directions. I am thinking that since they have beefed up some components on the LE this is now not possible without binding.

the 600n doesnt have an a-arm though

i have fitted an a-arm to my 600n and can get +-13 although im only using 12

Which components have been beefed up on the LE?

As far as I know th whole head is beefed up and most parts a little thicker. I don't have a 600N to compare against though.

Right, problem solved, my cyclic values were way too high. Now running 12/12 and will see how it goes but I can get 13/13 without too much binding. I started the build yesterday at about 9am and went right through till midnight with setup so I am blaming it on tiredness.

Oh, Bladestriker, got the bladegrips shiny side out this time too.

Thanks for your help guys.

whats your swash mix values now?

whats your swash mix values now?

aile - 55
elev - 55
pit - 60

Someone else mentioned cutting the plastic link on the elev A arm down and I also had to do this when I put one on my 600N. If you don't the crank will not be at 90 degrees to the A arm when pitch is 0 degrees (if you use the recommended lengths on the other head push rods.) And I would imagine that the maximum positive pitch would be limited by it too. Don't know if the LE is like that.

so how did you achieve this? mine are so much lower than yours
