B) Balancing The Rotor Blades - Reely SKY Dragonfly Pro Bedienungsanleitung

• To do this, carefully unhitch the lower ball-headed eyelet (5) from the linkage and turn the eyelet one turn further
along the linkage.
• Reattach the eyelet and make sure the linkage is seated correctly.
• Start the helicopter again and check to see whether your correction has already done the job.
• Another way is to reduce the linkage of the blade which is running too low so that it will generate more lift and thus
run higher.

b) Balancing the Rotor Blades

• Smooth and virtually vibration-free running of
mechanical components will not be possible unless the
main rotor blades (1) and the tail rotor (2) have been
balanced.
• To do so, you can use proprietary rotor blade scales,
propeller balancers (3) or even a home-made jig of your
own (4).
• What is important here is that the rotor blades are
precisely aligned to each other along a straight line and
can pivot in either direction with the very minimum
frictional resistance.
Then stick small adhesive film strips around the nose
of the lighter rotor blade until the weight of the two rotor
blades is balanced.
