kmaluo, to check the cyclic ring, put the collective stick at max, with one hand keep turning the blades and with the other hand go to the 8 main "corners" of aileron/elevator (assuming mode 2). Then redo with mid-stick and full negative. Look for servo or mechanical binding.
Start with cyclic range at same value as pitch range, and decrease in case of binding.
Thanks guys! Coco, I think that was the ticket, the manual talks about servo horns, pushrods, linkage binding, but not about the swash actually putting too much pressure on the main shaft. Everything else looked good, but at zero collective, the main shaft was slowing down just a tad with full right aileron.
Tomas, maybe the manual can touch on this? It's probably common sense and totally my fault. Also, will there be finer cyclic controls where you can adjust each direction instead of just a general cyclic range? Thanks again!
