If I can fly like this tomorrow...

On the swash setting you have three percentages, probably defaulted to 60% aileron, 60% elevator and 60% collective.
If you reduce or increase these you will change the amount of airleron, elevator and collective separately. in the case of elevator and aileron it has the same effect as the rate switch setting, only its not so easily switched back.
The collective pitch percentage will change the amount of pitch you have when the pitch curve is at zero or 100%. So it has the same effect as reducing the extremes of the pitch curve.

I know what you're saying Machasm, it's just really beginning to get disheartening now, as if I'm not meant to have a heli. Both my coax's are waiting on new parts, now this one needs even more, tbh probably getting to be cheaper now to buy a whole new one.

I just might go over to tanks, they don't break when they crash...

John you hang in there fella!
Ive seen your flyin skills in those Phoenix recordings and there is nothing wrong with your hovering.
From what I can gather your problems lie with the Heli setup mate.
Get your bits and make sure your mate helps you set it up, and Im sure it will be a different ball game.
Ive seen them tanks at the Southern Model Show, OOOOOoooo Mannnnnnn
you dont wanna go there

On the upside I've got most of the bits I need, just the tail shaft that I don't have. And guess what, yep, you guessed it, out of stock.

I have the phoenix sim but can not work out how you view the files?

copy and paste to the phoenix folder ... my computer\C:\Program Files\PhoenixRC\resources\demos+tutorials\Demonstr ations\helicopter and copy and paste in there then open phoenix and click on the demo's and they shud show up in ya program when ya run em now ...

[Streetluge Chris]

Cheers for that.

Parts very much on order, at least most of them should be here today with luck... Then we'll put her together, I'm off tomorrow so will have a nice long time to do re-build and think about it, check and double check to make sure nothing left out this time... then the weather will turn and it's back to the coax's till we get some more decent weather, or till I get fed up waiting and sell the 81004y thing and buy a Tamiya truck or something with the money.
