After building the SG90, I've become obsessed with accuracy; it seems my OCD has finally met it's match.....

Is anyone using a jig/frame/brace system or otherwise to set up their rotor heads? (I currently use a height gage, machinists squares and a dial indicator on the swash).

Cheers,

Patrick

The more anal you are about set up, the better the model seems to perform. Go for it.

For us we obsess over tweaking and checking and re-checking to ensure that we have a finely tuned precise machine and can then only blame our fingers for being out of whack haha.

Here is the website of one of the French F3C team members. In his photo gallery are some photos of a setup jig:

My loctite bottles are organized by number, then by volume, then by date of opening......

Thanks for the links Rick!
