PT flyer rocks.
Now to see if lowering my headspeed gets rid of the vibration in my fuselage. 14t pinion 50T front main. Dropped by 300 rpms. Recommended was 1600 to 1800 for scale flying. I will be at 1900 calculated.

Also try a shallower pitch curve so you have more head speed sooner...

Goody Sir PT
Will do. I dropped my total pitch from 11 to 10, and switch to idle up soon as I hover. Identical pitch curves are 42.5, 50, 59, 75,100. How does that look
Thanks

thinking bout shallow pitch curve. I found an example in scale section.

500 Size Cayuse: 32-54-77-88-100
500 Size MH-6: 34-56-77-89-100.

I left my bottom value as 42.5 as that is 1.5-ve, which is enough. Weight of the Heli pulls it down

...Agreed...30's are too low...40's is Mo better!
How much R/H lean did you have? I had to counter balance on the left side to achieve a more level flight...

Sir PT
It worked. The vibes are gone. I changed so many things I don't know what it was or a combination of all ...motor mount frame stiffener, brace from the top of mechanics to fuse, Your gears, SRT zero pitch on paddles with guage, remove fuse extension, cut of most of tail fin ext(that kept tail blades off the ground, it was acting as a guitar string amplifying vibes) and the adjusted pitch curve. Flew in idle up no problem..90% flat. ESC cold, 60 amp hobbywing. No lean sits plum in the air and drifts to the left. I'll move the receiver pack from middle to right side, before I use trim. Phew this was a crazy five weeks to get this result, and you're incorporated. LMAO
