thank you for these very informative videos. I just went thru this procedure after replacing a servo and all is well.

For those wondering this WILL work with the RTF DXS transmitter, just did this with mine while I wait for my dx6 to arrive and it flys sooo much smoother and I feel it way more responsive, it got rid of that nasty factory wobble/vibration on take off can’t believe they let them out of the factory like this. Once again thank you JJ! Btw mine was done on the 230s smart . Happy flying ! 🤘🏻

Hello , I also have this Heli . For some reason the Swash Plate will not raise when I throttle up to collective pitch. everything else works fine . Throttle , Rudder , Elevator and Aileron . The Swash Plate will raise if I push the Panic /Bind button . I am using the DXs transmitter that came with it . Thanks . love your video's

Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge. How would I perform the same procedure using the DX6i?

hello JJ I find very useful your videos, now that I have a blade 230s. I keep seeing you. I have a question, the center marks of the original parts of this helicopter (Rotor head and Blade Grips), serve as proof of 0 pitch aligning them?

Hello JJ. Question for you. After a crash with my 230S the swashplate is way out of level. Would you recommend removing the control arm from the servo gear & leveling it this way? I will appreciate any help. Thank you very much.

I'm fairly new to the hobby and brand new to the 230. I love your your videos and I'm learning alot. Your how to videos are great, in what/when order should certain adjustments like swash level or? Be made for a new 230?
@larrychamel 4 years ago

Hello again JJ. Using the DXe transmitter, do you enter servo adjustment mode the same way? Exit servo adjustment mode the same way? Thanks again for your help! Cheers.

Hi JJ can you tell me if the 230s is the same size as the old Blade SR not the 120 sr or the msr as they are both smaller?

Would you do this procedure before or after Trim flight ???
@stevejohnston8543 2 years ago

If you don’t have zero pitch after the servo adjustment then wouldn’t you want to turn the Inks in a way that levelled the blades rather than turning them the same amount? Which is to say only make individual adjustments or do the links always have to be turned the same amount and be the same length.Wouldn’t that create same problem? Does turning right shorten them and turning left lengthen them? Thanks.

hello. is the esc always meant to stay red on these? cheers
@jea405 7 years ago

Did you disconnet the main motor from the esc?? and what would happen is you don't disconnet them?? Thank You

Thanks I figured it out and now have the gear switch activated, and can go into the servo adjust mode. But now the swashplate is completely deviated no matter what I do.

I could be wrong but the stock rods on the 230s V2 don't appear adjustable...
