I have seen many animated videos on swashplate but your video give more clear cut idea about swashplate.

Thanks for posting this, John! Best regards from Brasilia, Brazil.

Always a pleasure to watch your videos, awesome once again. G'day from Oz.

Hi John, just a quick message to say thanks for the very informative video, it was short enough to keep it interesting, but it still manged to cover all the topic in sufficient detail. Well done. [Edit:] Seeing as the other comments all mention where the folks are from, you can now add Scotland to the list :-)

Thank you very much is very helpful

I second Gustavo Sganzerla's comment

Very nice

Hi John, I LOVE your video's. After 20 years of fixed wing I bought a Nano S2 and I love flying heli's, I really like scale birds and that is what I would focus on. If you have any hints or tips please do not hesitate and reply

John, can you do a video on maintenance of the popular FlyWing FW40 Heli? Your videos are invaluable to all of us in the Heli community. Thanks, Jeff

I see my goblin 700 swash wobbling a little. Worn out bearing? Have not checked further today.

What sort of pins that you use on that spanner? I tried using steel nails and it just bent. Align 600 swashplate is really tough to unscrew

may I know the materials for this one pls? thank you

Hey there John. Nice video. Watched it a couple times. Informative indeed👍🏻. Just wondering. What servos are those. Never seen any golden-cased servos before. Been searching for cheapo servos for my old Raptor 30. Would be amazing to see what that model is. Let me know💪🏻 Best regards👍🏻

John Salt Thanks!

Are any suppliers which you recomend?

@Rchelicopterfun

Suppliers for what, the bearings or the swash? Swash would be any hobby shop or distributor that caries your specific brand heli. Bearings can be found at any good bearing supply outlet. Boca Bearing for example.

I don't understand your question "How would I get a swashplate". I don't know... how would you? Would you get it off your helicopter or would you purchase a replacement from the hobby shop? That's your call.

Sorry, I don't know what TBS is, at least in relation to swashplates. If you are referencing TBE (toilet bowl effect), it's usually caused by a phase lag in the flybar so the stabilization correction occurs too late in the cyclic and TBE is produced. It was notoriously common on small micro fixed pitch helis, especially coaxial ones with low head speeds and low mass flybars. I even wrote an article on it a number of years back and how to cure it: www.rchelicopterfun.com/toilet-bowl-effect.html On electronic stabilized helicopters (flybarless), I've never encounter TBE myself but I've heard if the FBL system is not sitting level in relation to the rotor disc that can set it up on some FBL systems. On GPS autopilot systems, the usual cause of TBE is poor compass calibration.

Hello my name is Brien an I really want to get into RC helicopters. well really replica RC helicopters not life size but really big. an I really want to know how much power that I will need to make one fly for one. Then the I guess you will say you control to make it fly. Asking for help.

Start small, learn to fly, and then and only then consider getting into larger scale. My website is all about helping people new to the hobby, so that would be one place to start your research: www.rchelicopterfun.com/ My scale RC helicopter may answer more scale specific questions: www.rchelicopterfun.com/scale-rc-helicopters.html If you don't want to partake in the long self learning curve this hobby represents, then join an RC heli flying club & learn from an instructor. These things are after all as challenging to fly as full size in many respects. Getting into large scale however for most will be at least a 2 to 3 year endeavor, depending on how much time you are willing to practice, practice, & more practice.
