RVE MERAK E750 - ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS
For the connecting rods between the aileron levers and the swashplate, as the elevator arm
length is fix, aileron connecting rods should fit elevator arm length. With the provided pins
locking both elevator and aileron arms/levers, use a swashplate leveler tool to adjust the aileron
connecting rods length, obtaining a perfectly leveled setup. As always check for the correct
orientation of the ball links, RVE engravement from the ball links should point out of the
threaded balls.
For the rods connecting the swashplate with the bladeholder’s pitch arm, follow your
flybarless controller instructions in order to set the correct length.
Some flybarless controller systems ask to have zero degrees for collective pitch in the
swashplate center position (this position can be obtained by locking elevator and aileron
arms/levers with the provided pins). Then it will be possible to asymmetrically set the
maximum range for maximum collective pitch and negative collective pitch.
Other flybarless controller systems ask to perform a symmetrical setup having in a certain
amount of pitch in the middle of the swashplate range. In order to identify the specific
collective pitch to have, the center of the desired collective pitch range should be found. For
example, if the maximum collective pitch we need to achieve is +12º and the minimum -10º
(taking in account all the different flight modes), the center of the collective pitch should be set
to 12º-(12º+10º)/2 = 12º-22º/2 = 12º-11º = 1º
