The FAI has the mixing arms on the flybar seesaw, the 3d has them on the grips.

Hi

Thanks for the info I have been at a fun fly... I see that I have the 3D head. My question was that the tempest that I have is not as aggressive as my extreme and I think I have it as setup as it will go....

You're correct, the extreme head is a bit more aggressive, PLUS the blade bolt spacing is wider, so if you use the same size blades on a machine with a tempest head, and a machine with the extreme head, the extreme will feel more aggresive even more. (smaller rotor disc)

What paddles are you running? You can experiment with that and different length flybars and that should get you where you want to be. And then if that doesn't work...... V-bar
