Note: The blade you choose to raise or lower when making tracking adjustments will depend on the pitch of
each blade . Because both rotor blades should be as close to 0 degrees as possible when Throttle Hold is
activated (DO NOT attempt to check for 0 degrees pitch in the normal or stunt/idle up Flight Modes) and the
throttle/collective stick is in the middle position, you can easily identify which rotor blade to adjust . If one blade
is “lower” than 0 degrees, raise it to match the other blade . If one blade is “higher” than 0 degrees, lower it to
match the other blade .
Making sure that both rotor blades are as close to 0 degrees as possible when the throttle/collective stick is in
the middle position will help to ensure that you have an equal amount of positive and negative pitch travel when
in the Idle Up/Stunt Flight Mode, and that your curves more closely match those shown in the “Normal and Stunt
Flight Modes” section of this manual .
Typically, not much adjustment should be necessary to properly track the main rotor blades . If significant
adjustments are required, be sure to double-check the length of both pitch control links (they should be close to
the same length). You should also check the blades for any warps or twists. In most cases, you should be able
to get both blades tracking perfectly in the same plane . However, due to slight variations in the ball links and
threaded linkage rods/pushrods of the pitch control linkages, it may not always be possible to achieve absolutely
perfect blade tracking . Don’t worry, as the helicopter should still perform well as long as the blade tracking is
adjusted as closely as possible .
