  • Pitch curves and how they relate to pitch angle -- another noob question

    Still trying to get my head around head speed, throttle and pitch curves.

    On the DX6i pitch curves are given in percentages but how do these percentages relate to the actual pitch angle of the rotors. Is there a simple formula for this. How do I know that a given percentage gives me either a positive or negative pitch angle?

      The basic rule is that centre stick, pitch curve at 50% should give you Zero pitch, anything above 50% is positive and below is negative. This is on the basis that everything is mechanically and electronically level. I am running -11 degrees at 0% and +11 degress at 100%
