P I T C H - T O - E L E VATOR MIXING ADJUSTMENT WITH TRAVEL ADJUST
As mentioned in the previous step, the total travel of each servo can vary slightly, which can also cause the swashplate to be tilted fore and
aft when the collective is moved to the extreme high and low pitch positions. This situation can also be corrected if necessary through the
use of the Travel Adjustment Function.
To check Pitch-to-Elevator Mixing, it will first be necessary to position the collective stick in the center position as in the previous steps.
Next, move the collective stick from the center to the high pitch position while viewing the swashplate from the left side of the model. While
moving the swashplate, look for any tendencies for the swashplate to tilt fore or aft as it reaches the high pitch positions. Repeat this
procedure several times to be sure that your observations are correct. If no fore or aft tilting tendencies are found, it will now be necessary to
repeat this procedure from the center collective stick position to full low pitch. If no tilting tendency is found, proceed to the next step.
In our example, we have shown that the swashplate has be tilted forward as the collective has been increased to full high pitch. This would
indicate that the Front servo’s maximum travel is now more than that of the two rear servos (Left and Right).
In this condition, we would suggest that the travel value for the Front servo be increased slightly (5–10%). Repeat the above procedure
and increase the value as needed until the tilting tendency is eliminated.
For information on the Travel Adjustment Function, please refer to page 40, or your radio instruction manual for details.
Once this condition has been corrected, repeat this procedure for the center to low collective pitch position and adjust as needed.
Note: It is very important that during this step, only the travel value for the front servo (elevator) be adjusted to correct any pitch-to-elevator
tendencies. If the travel value of the Left or Right servo changes, this will affect the pitch-to-aileron tendencies corrected in the
previous step. If you feel that readjustment of the Left and Right servo travel is necessary, then it is suggested that the travel for each
servo be increased or decreased at the same amount, and the pitch-to-aileron procedure be re-tested.
View is shown from the left side of the
model. Notice how in this example the
swashplate has tilted forward as the
collective has moved from the center to
the full high pitch position.
