700N and V-bar 4.0 questions
I'm just about to trigger on a v-bar and Mikado 700N head conversion. Couple of questions for those who have done it.
- what is the best way for reducing throws on the cyclic servos and why . Reduce % in the software or reduce distance in the servo wheels themselves. Need 13 deg pitch and 9-10 cyclic. - leading or lagging main grips ? pros and cons for 3d. Thanks John |

- reduce mechanically => best resolution and force
- leading => matches to preset |

That is great. Thanks for reply. So we reduce 30-50% the servo throw . Anyone figured out what is the proper distance from center on 8717 servos .

I set my Heli-Chris up with leading edge controls. My simple reasoning is that it makes the swash motion more familiar and easier to configure, i.e. up is positive collective, etc.

I go leading on V-Bar for similar reasons: I want every bird in the fleet to pre-flight control check the exact same way.
