The Ratchet Effect

Is it tough to remove the ratchet effect on the collective from the Interlink controller? I've gotten to the point where I'm real tired of it. I hit just the right notch and I'm not quite a foot off the ground, one more and I'm sailing away. Trimming the collective is worthless imo so I'm ready to remove the offender. Is it tough I ask just before I tear into it?

Re: The Ratchet Effect

Hi,

I have removed the rachet from all my radio's. Just do some carefull sanding and Keep the curve as linear as possible then make sure that the rachet plate is slightly more bent to hold the lever when used. You should find that it takes quite some rubbing to sand the little ripples off but it is so worth it when this is done.

remember to bend the slide plate a little more to hold the stick position when you let go.
