is your heli nose or tail heavy?

Maybe u could cut short your rudder control link and shift your tail servo nearer to the rudder..

[Alex Khoo]

actually i dont wan to shift the tail servo becaause of the wire.
anyway whats the best method to measure cg?
some people say hold the blade perpendicular to the body. see which side drop.

some people say just lift up the flybar and see which side of the skid touch the ground first?

which is the most accurate method?
thanks

I always stick to the flybar theory.. =D
So far its the best way for me...

[zattan22]

im using the blade theory
using this mehod could also allow you to feel the tensions between the main blade and the holder...
in fact, both theory is good......
if you dun wanna move anything, the only way is to add weight.....this is the cheapest way....but it add more weight to your heli lor....which lead to move power consumptions....

i use both, blade method to check for tension, flybar to get the cog becos if i use blade method for cog, the owb or belt could hinder the rocking. also i use flybar method so i can see the main shaft 90deg to the ground. but wat eva both method works. and i personnaly add thick washer to the tail as weight...

Go Daiso, ...look for 12mm Alu tube (or 14mm for MiniTitan) in your favourite color, cut to length and replace your stock tail boom.

This will add about 12 grams to the tail side not to mention you'll have a much stronger tail boom !

daiso? where is that ?

changing the tail boom is very diffcult......
remember no shifting the tail servo..........
