My Posts This: Topic  Forum		My Evo 50 has a slight wobble (front to back). Not too bad, but noticeable. When I hook up the Co-Pilot, the wobble disappears.

Any thoughts on what to check?

Evo 50, OS 50Hyper, Futaba 7C, GY401.

Thanx!

My Posts This: Topic  Forum		I agree with Dokey.

When you installed the dampeners in the head, you should have lubed them up a bit. They need lube both where the go into the head and also between the dampeners and spindle shaft. I used some teflon grease for this.

The Evo also likes a fairly high head speed. It does fly OK at lower head speeds, but you can sometimes get a wobble in the head.

The other thing to check is that your blades aren't too tight. You should be able to swing them in the holders without too much resistance.

I assume you balanced the blades?

My Posts This: Topic  Forum		Thanks. I haven't lubed the dampers, I'll try that. The blades are a bit tight, too. I'll loosen them (they are balanced).

Not sure how to figure out what my head speed is (I have no governor), but my motor is real rich right now. So, it may not be fast enough.
