| hi,
The raptor grips are designed with offset and not centered at zero pitch (FAI heritage), however with stock parts on the 90 3-D (with ample flybar teeter and plastic grips)you can get about 14/14 collective and 8/8 cyclic. This is more than ample. As the G-force head exceeds limitations by their own admission and their grinding suggestion it may not be the best choice for some modelers. Grinding down and weakening a plastic blade grip sounds like a Mickey Mouse solution and really does not surprise me.  BTW, the TT metal grips have lower throw than the TT plastic grips. Quite an upgrade ....hey?

. Taking a closer look, the real problem is that at full neg. pitch I can only get about 2-3 degrees of elevator input before the main grip arm binds against the flybar control rod.
Dose anyone know if you can use the stock Raptor 60 grips with the GFORCE head or do I need to get new grips?
