    Pitch gauge got 3 in 1 type??? I never knew that!!!

    1) Put the heli blade into the pitch gauge, not too far in.

    2) Loosen the pivot screw.

    3) With ur eyes, align the top of the pitch gauge with ur heli flybar.

    4) Ensure that the top of the pitch gauge is parallel to the flybar.

    5) Read off the scale of the pitch gauge for the pitch.


    I hope tis helps.

            visual reference @ http://www.raptortechnique.com/pitchgauge.htm

            usually, i'd check that my gauge is mounted correctly by setting my pitch to zero (http://www.raptortechnique.com/image...setting01s.jpg) and ensure it reads zero on the gauge. If it does not, i'd just offset the other readings accordingly.

                Hi Nizam, remember me (with my son), we met last saturday.

                There are many design for pitch guage and most LHS carries them. You can see Rotor web site that carriers them :

                http://shop.rotor.com.sg/show-detail.asp?prodid={6870809B-64C8-4C45-BE79-5A2260BFF092}

                or in my opinion, you can make your own :



                (Actually, you can buy just the blade grip from Rotor (seen them the last time there) and DIY the rest....

                Alternnately, there is someone (MEXX) selling one at the marketplce :



                Hope this is useful...

                      Yes, it will be a Trex...not your SE model, either 450XL HDE or CDE...still studying the differences.

                      Bro...do PM me on your progress and we can learn together.....
