Hi johhnnie

You now need to set your pitch curve up on your radio to give you +1 6 10 deg of pitch in normal mode.

Scottish translation: get your radio manual and look up pitch curve, adjust the bottom setting so you get +1 on your blades with your left stick at the bottom, next move stick to middle adjust radio to get 6 deg on your blades then move stick to top adjust till you get 10 deg.

Failing that come over to Falkirk flying field and I will sort you out. Just remember to bring all your manuals.
