c) Checking and setting the pitch values
First, check the correct installation of the servo levers on the swash plate servos. If the control stick for the pitch control
is in the center position, the servo levers must be at a 90° angle to the link rods.
Then the pitch value of the main rotor blades should be 5° to 6°. You must use a suitable pitch adjuster gauge to
measure the pitch value.
The following combinations turned out to be the ideal starting point for setting your personal values.
