SWASH AFR (not in SWH1 ):
everything installed per factory instructions, set the model to HELI ( HR3
operate backwards (reverse the whole function), or one servo operates backwards (reverse that servo alone).
Next check elevator. Remember, the aileron servo(s) operate correctly, so if elevator does not, we should only have 2
choices left—the whole function needs to be reversed, or the servo(s) not shared with aileron need to be reversed.
Last is collective. If the aileron and elevator controls are working properly, the only thing that could be wrong is the
direction in which the collective operates (reverse the whole function). In our example, HR3 is 180 degrees off from the
swashplate of the Caliber. Therefore, it is very likely that several functions will not operate properly. The collective pitch
collective pitch rate, however, from +50% to -50% , will reverse the collective pitch without affecting the aileron action.

GOAL of EXAMPLE:
Adjust the travel of the collective pitch
from +50% to -23% , reversing the travel
of all 3 servos and decreasing their
travel in collective pitch only, on an
HR3 SWASH TYPE .
Where next?
Swashplate function rate settings ( SWASH AFR ) reduce/increase/reverse the rate
(travel) of the aileron, elevator (except H-2 ) and collective pitch functions,
adjusting or reversing the motion of all servos involved in that function, only
when using that function. Since these types utilize multiple servos together to
properly correct the travel of any one control. Since H-1 uses one servo for each
