Note: The blade you choose to raise or lower when adjusting tracking will depend on the head speed of the
model. For example, if the head speed in hover is low, you should lower the high blade.
Typically, not much adjustment should be necessary to properly track the main rotor blades. If significant
adjustments are required, be sure to double-check the length of both pitch control links (they should be close to
the same length) and also check the blades for warps or twists. In most cases, you should be able to get both
blades tracking perfectly in the same plane. However, due to the small size of the pitch links and threaded rods it
may not always be possible to achieve absolutely perfect blade tracking. Don’t worry, as the helicopter should still
perform well as long as the blade tracking is adjusted as closely as possible.
