Here are some photos for the people who have asked what linkages you must alter to increase or decrease main rotor Pitch on the HoneyBee: King. This method also applys to Main Blade Tracking.
I have marked these out by RED lines indentifiying the linkage`s you must shorten to decrease pitch or lengthen to increase pitch by turning towards or away from you. These are connected to the swashplate for your information.

When you remove the BOTTOM Linkage using a thumbnail be carefull not to break it. When you remove it will make the blade on your right hand side become flopppy so You can move the main rotor pitch up and down by moving the linkage up and down. You will see what i mean when you do this as the pitch will alter dramaticly.
You need to alter the blade pitch when you goto track your main blades. So my advice is to get the totor blade pitch at the required pitch and then spin up the helicopter after connecting the battery to it after you have switched on the transmitter 1st making sure that the throttle is all the way down (left Stick DOWN).
Hope this helps. This is as much detail as i can go into at present. I am sure other King owners or Admins, Mods will add stuff to this or correct any mistakes i have made.
