Step 5: Adjust the Swashplate
To achieve a geometrically correct mechanical setup of the swash
plate with perfectly aligned servo arms, it is necessary to adjust the
push rods.
The swash plate needs to be centered and level within the pitch travel
range. Fine-tuning can be done with the collective buttons in step 5,
located below the cyclic buttons. Then ensure that the swash driver
is in mid position of its travel range and level with the axis of the
spindle shaft.
Now that the swash plate is exactly centered and level, you can
adjust the control rods to the blade holders. The rods need to be of
equal length and the blade grips need to be exactly at 0° position.
Now double-check the collective travel. If the direction is is incorrect,
the reason may be that the bladeholders are not properly installed
and need to be turned by 180°. Check back with the assembly manual,
if nessecary.
Maximum and minimum collective pitch needs to be measured by
using a pitch gauge. The pitch maximum and pitch minimum values
need to be obtained in setup mode.
