Minititan CNC Tail Rotor from Flying Hobbies

[Ice93]

Hope that one of the experts here can help me.

I just got the CNC Tail from Flying Hobby: http://flying-hobby.com/catalog/prod...oducts_id=2016

I found that after the installation when I mechnically adjust the pitch slider to the centre of the shaft, there is zero pitch on the tail blades. If I remember correctly, in the plastic tail there is pitch when the pitch slider is centered.

Normally when I setup my gyro, I would put it in std mode and adjust the rudder pushrod until I can maintain a hover without much drifting b4 I turn on HH.

However, with this tail,I find that in std mode I have to counter with right rudder to prevent the heli from spinning. I have to shorten the pushrod to its max in order to get the tail to stay put. After this has been solver, I find that there isn't much travel left for right rudder but plenty for left rudder.

Anyone of you guys used this tail b4 on the mini titan? Hope to be able to get some input from you guys.

U remembered wrongly my friend. When the pitch slider is placed at the centre of the shaft, it will be zero pitch for both plastic & metal tail

I do see some heli models have zero pitch at center. Regardless, u should still be able to setup properly.

Hmmm Okay...let me go try it out later. So I should just fly in non-hh and adjust the push rod length until the heli is hovering properly then switch to HH right?

This is also the way I setup my gyro....

What gyro are you using? Normally tail slider at center you'll get zero pitch. Did you set the travel limit for your gyro? Did the tail slider travel the full distance left and right on the tail shaft?
