Trim problems

[Savs]

Hi everyone

I got my BR for Christmas today and am having loads of fun with it. However, it tends to spin to the left and I have the trim set as far as it will go to the right. Any ideas?

Merry Christmas

It is described several places how to do it, but the short version is that you will have to adjust the angle (pitch) of the rotor blades manually.

Trimming: To compensate for the left turning (need right trim) you should try to increase the pitch angle on the top rotor blades, and if it turns right (need left trim) you should try to increase the pitch angle on the lower rotor blades.

o Increase the pitch angle on the top rotor blades = right trim
o Increase the pitch angle on the low rotor blades = left trim

(you could also do the opposite and reduce the pitch angle to get opposite results)

You adjust the pitch angel by gently rotating the inner part of the blade with the rod while you hold firmly on the rotor centre or you could do it by bending up or down on the trailing edge (back) of the blades. If you adjust at the tip of the blades you need less adjustments than if you adjust the inner part of the blade. Good luck.
