11. Fine tuning of the model helicopter

a) Setting the alignment
In order to achieve an exact steering and flight behavior of the helicopter, it is necessary that the rotor
blades run at the same height within the area level of the rotor.
In order to set this alignment, it is necessary to mark the tip of one rotor blade with white paint at the
upper and lower pair of blades respectively.
If you increase the speed until the electric driven helicopter is about to take off and that you observe
sideways both area levels of the rotor, you notice immediately if the blades run correctly in a groove or
run at different area levels.
Lower rotor circuit:
• As the length of both steering linkages (1) from
the swash plate to the lower rotor head is pre-
set, the adjustment is effected via two setting
screws (2) at the blade retainer.
• To this effect, turn the setting screw at the
blade that runs too high in small steps (1/8 of
a turn) outwards.
The angle of attack of the rotor blade is thus
reduced and the blade does not run too high
any more due to the lower drive.
• If you insert a thin paper strip with the corre-
sponding thickness into the slit (3) you can
retighten carefully the setting screw.
At the same time, you can check if the setting
screw at the rotor blade that runs too low is
fastened through completely.
