    Aileron for Trex500 - Multiplex Cockpit

    Guys I am in a bit of fix here.

    My Trex500 has different left and right aileron. I am currently using Multiplex Cockpit SX. For the aileron, I am using the Dual Rates to control.

    Now the problem is my dual rates are equal for left and right, but then they are not equal. Mean example for 50% aileron which I in now, one side is 7 degrees and the other side is 4 degrees.

    Any ways to counter this? I can't seem to figure out other than dual rates what else I can use to adjust the aileron. And also I can't figure out how to adjust the aileron of each side separately.

    Thanks

    I am thinking of adjusting the end-point-adjustment for left or right servo so that I can equal the degrees on left and right aileron.
    When I input left, the left and right cyclics servos will move in opposite directions, and vice versa when I input right.
    Will it be wrong to adjust the EPA of only say the right servo? Will EPA affect my collective?

      I also not sure. But one thing you can do is to try it, and then after that use a swash leveler to check low, mid and high collective for unevenness.

        Have thought about using the leveler also but will need to buy one. You know where I can find one locally?

          I didn't come across any locally for the T500. Helidirect_DOT_com has it.

              Yes, can't live without the leveler once you start using it. I use it after every crash to make sure everything is still level, and also use it after servicing my cyclic servo to make sure the swash plate is level.

                Just ordered it from Ebay. Search under 'swashplate leveler'. Cost me about S$30+ for shippment everything. Downside is still need to wait for about 10 days

                  i bought from readyheli. Trueblood engineering takes 2 weeks to reach me, but shipping cost only US$5.
