Collective and cyclic throw too much ???

[mmarian]

Has anyone experienced difficulty setting up the V-Bar for collective and cyclic throw?? I mean to get 11 deg of maximum pitch and 8 deg of cyclic throw and to be within the recommended range between 80 and 120 ???

8917 was inside the range or close enough not to worry

Mine worked out ok. Do you have the balls on the servo arms at the recommended distance and your atv's right around 100?

I use the Futaba 157 HV servos. Could that has anything to do with the excessive throw??

[jakeg1999]

I am also using the 157's....I think my cyclic was close to the 80 mark, and I just left my collective at 100, and I figured I would adjust it based on performance. I only measured the cyclic with a pitch guage and not the collective. After one basic test flight, the collective feels pretty good at 100...

I had to dial mine down to around 85 on the cyclic and 92 collective using 157HV's so guess its a 157 thing.

Mine is also 82 cyclic and 92 collective about 13-13 that said I think you setup the vbar wrong the only helis that have geometry issues with vbar are non logos brands.

I have 100 collective and 92 cyclic with 8717
It must be a BLS157 thing then.
