130x death shudder

[MarkG_R1]

Hi peeps my 130 has started to get quite a wobble on when I pitch the nose down and increase collective to blast off down the field, its rock solid in the hover and only does this when I go into fff

The plastic swash does have a bit of slop in now, I'm thinking it might be time for an alloy upgrade

What say you guys?

O ring mod from rc hero fixes that.

Forgot to say I've already got the O ring kit on, the play is in the actual swash not the linkages

Ah. Can't help them I'm afraid. Still in plastic myself!

I think the answer is an alloy swash
Any opinions on the best one available welcome

I have a Rakon tail slider and lynx tail blade grips so no brand loyalty just want the best one

I had a similar problem after a few crashes. To resolve I had to reducing the ele or ail gain a few clicks via the heli's gyro program or if it's a specific servo that is causing the shakes then you may also need to play with the sub trim in your tx.

Hope it helps?

Try pulling link off,pulling O ring off,ply in fingers then fitting it all again.

Make sure main gear a is rubbing on the elevator servo...or is touching the fet..

Do you mean "is NOT rubbing"!?

[askeys_heli_madness]

Is it 'shudder' or extreme wagging? Try lowering the rudder gain setting.

Check the main shaft, I had to replace mine recently after it cracked. Only took about 100 crashes to damage it 😃

Update:

I managed to cure the shudder by putting the original o rings back on the swash and putting the RC hero ones on in front of them, I think they were going so far back they weren't actually stopping the slop in the linkages, putting the old ones back behind them has cured this for now

The plastic swash lives another day

I guess O rings have a useful life, after which they need replacing ....

Ohh and mark, come on you know you "need" an alloy swashplate!
