CHECKING FOR PROPER MOTION ON AN SR-3 SWASHPLATE
GOAL of EXAMPLE: STEPS: INPUTS:
80
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 SR-3 MODEL TYPE.
Where next?
Open SWASH AFR function.
Adjust PIT travel to –23.
Close the menu.

(If ADVANCE, again.)
to SWASH AFR.
to –23%.
Confirm the swashplate is level at 0 travel. Adjust arms if needed.
Apply full collective and check that the swashplate remained level. If not, adjust
servo’s travels as needed to correct. END POINT: see p. 32.
Set up the normal condition: (TH-CV/NOR, PI-CV/NOR, REVO./NOR): see p. 81.
Set up D/R,EXP: see p. 35.

down; back of swashplate
moves up.
The leading edges of tail
blades rotate left.
Entire Swashplate lifts.
WRONG MOTION
Swashplate tilts left.
Back of Swashplate moves up.
Back of Swashplate moves
down.
Swashplate moves the
opposite.
Entire swashplate moves up.

Swashplate lowers.
HOW TO FIX
Reverse AIL setting in
SWASH to -50%.
Ch6 servo moves
incorrectly; REVERSE.
Ch1 servo moves
incorrectly; REVERSE.
Reverse ELE setting in SWASH.
(ex: +50 to –50)
Ch2 servo moves
incorrectly; REVERSE.
