Align Trex Se Setup Guide
❍
Push the collective (left stick) all the way up.
❍
Level the blades and flybar by lifting on the guage.
❍
The top of the guage and flybar should be parallel or very close. (figure I below)
❍
If more pitch is needed to get +10 degrees we will need to access the Function Mode on the
transmitter.
■
With the transmitter already on, press scroll and increase at the same time.
■
Press scroll until MIX CP2 is displayed.
■
Press channel until MIX CP6 is displayed.
■
Use increase to add more collective. You should see the collective increase as you make
the adjustment. Increase until +10 is obtained.
■
Check clearance A between the top of the washout base and bottom of the main
rotor housing (figure J below). The gap can be tighter than what is shown but they
surfaces should not be butted together.
■
If you are unable to reach +10 degrees before the surfaces touch, there is a
problem with linkage elsewhere. Go back and recheck your linkage.

●
Now we check the negative pitch.
❍
Set your pitch guage to -10
❍
Place it on one of the main blades.
❍
Pull the collective (left stick) all the way down.
❍
Level the blades and flybar by lifting on the guage.
❍
The top of the guage and flybar should be parallel or very close. (figure K below).
■
Check clearance B between the top of the collar and bottom of the swashplate (figure L
below).
■
If you are unable to reach -10 degrees before the surfaces touch, there is a problem
with linkage elsewhere. Go back and recheck your linkage.
