Question on Head Binding

[MikeB]

Can someone tell me a good method to check for head binding.

Spin the head at Min & Max pitch, Check all 4 corners of the cyclic with the flybar fully deflected to both extents while you rotate the head? Just want to verify.

Also does the flybar actually deflect that far at times during flight? Just wondering on that one hehe.

Everyone one says get as much as you can so I mail ordered a few more degrees from a company that makes inverted flight training gear. jk jk

I usually put the cyclics into the corners and slide the collective up and down full range (idle up) and watch the linkage and pitch slider for binding or chatter while it goes up and down.

Thanks Doug, I'm sure I'm over complicating it. I just want it to roll like the sim without the exploding head part.
