Title: Synergy N7 Tail Fin
Post by: Scooterpilot on April 18, 2019, 06:29:32 PM: When the N7 is placed on level ground the tail fin rests on the ground, as if it's too long. I'm sure it's something I've done but for the life of me, I can't figure out why it touches the ground. It's not a good thing, especially when spinning up the main blades because the vibrations is crazy. Once the air, the model is smooth as glass. Any comments on what I may have done to make this happen.

Post by: Scooterpilot on May 26, 2019, 09:30:13 AM: I Installed a spacer/(shim) at the rear, where two bolts are used secure the skids to the frame. I replaced the two rear stock landing gear bolts with longer bolts to install the spacer. This raised the rear enough to stop the tail fin from contacting the ground. Hope this helps.
