My Posts This: Topic  Forum		Ah but the one issue is that it assumes the helicopter itself is level in both axis. If not then your swash will not end up level. EG, if your helicopter is sitting slightly nose down, then when the bubble says the swash is level, it will actually have aft cyclic in it

My Posts This: Topic  Forum		Wow that device looks complicated. I still believe my technique is still the most accurate as you can actually measure the differences between each pushrod.

My Posts This: Topic  Forum		To answer your questions, yes it is easy to use and this V2 looks as if it will work with more heli (like the electric 450's) than my V1. Also it has more adjustability than my V1 (I actually modified it a bit).

The money....well I think the price is a little steep but it definitely is a good setup tool. That part you have to think about yourself. If you dont have anything to level your swashplate with then I would add it to my setup tools

My Posts This: Topic  Forum		The simple way, do not need to remove the head to use this. Just clamp on spindle. Sets correct swash height also.
