GOAL of EXAMPLE:
Set up Normal Flight Condition
Throttle/Collective Pitch Curves and
Revo.
Base point: Adjust base point of throttle
curve until engine idles reliably on the
ground. Adjust base point of collective
blade pitch. Apply throttle until the
model sits 'light' on its skids. Adjust
base point of REVO . until model does not
rotate its nose at all.
Adjust collective pitch
curve to +5 degrees. Ease heli into a
hover. Land/shut engine off. Adjust
throttle curves and rudder trim. Repeat
until model hovers smoothly at half
throttle. Rapidly apply throttle from 1/4
to 1/2 stick. Adjust REVO . until the nose
does not change heading.
Adjust collective pitch
throttle up rapidly. If engine bogs,
increase the throttle curve. If engine
curve at points 4 or 5. Apply full throttle
while hovering, then descend back to a
hover. Adjust REVO . until the nose does
not change heading.
