Re: How to adjust hight of blades

I wouldnt bother trying....its more important that the blades are in track when the heli is flying.

To do this....this is my method anyway....put one bit of red tape on one blade end....and one bit of yellow on the other blade tip....go and fly....hover at eye level and hold this position....look at the blade tips....you will see if the red is higher than the yellow or vice versa....land and REDUCE the pitch rod length for the high blade....if the split is quite big then you can reduce the high flying blades pitch rod....and lengthen the other so the tips will be together in track.....once you are hovering and the red and yellow are a nice blur then you are good to go.

Tip: mark the blade grips....use a red dot of paint or something to identify the grip if you remove the blade for any reason.
