Hiya all!!

I need some help please. I've searched high and low for this but can't find it. I did check the "setting up blade pitch", but no luck.

I had a light crash with my HBK2. It damaged the plastic push link that changes the pitch of the blades and also a servo (the one on the left, in front of the gyro, if you were looking at the gyro, tail facing you). Got some spares and fixed it, but now my blades are just 0-pitch. All I did was remove the old servo, replaced it with the rudder servo and replaced the rudder servo with a new one. After the heli didn't wanna lift I messed around with the linkages to get the pitch right. At first it just wanted to go backwards right, fiddled a bit with the linkages and got it straight. The swashplate is straight now, and the main blades are running smoothly, I just can't get proper lift. I have to turn the pitch knob on the TX all the way to the right to get some picth. Do I need to turn the linkages out or in a bit or......What do I need to do to get the blades + pitch?

Is there any help with pics to set this up please?? PLEASE Help me!!

THX,
Joey
