Thanks guys.
Well you were right I tried the real thing and it was like a lunatic wasp!!!!
Managed to take off and land ok.
Glad I tried the flight sim for a couple of weeks first. I did manage a slight hover but it decided to "Roll" right, I think thats the right term ( went sideways to a novice like me ) and the stick had little effect, and forwards too. Gave the plants in the garden a bit of a hair cut but nothing more im glad to say. I tweaked the auto gyro a bit and tried again but more or less the same result. MMMM i thought , I am sure I read somewhere that the swash plates need to be level in both planes ie front and back, well mine wern't, static test on the bench and used the radio and to get the swash plates level needed to input roll and forward/ backwards. A light bulb illuminated in my head and so I adjusted the control rods to get a level swash plate on both pylons when the trims and sticks are centralised in both planes.
My thought is that it was doing what the swash settings were telling it to do and I couldn't dial it out with the sticks...well not quick enough for a numpty like me anyhow, hence the flower hair cut !.
I have not adjusted the amount of throw as I need the movent of the controls as gentle as poss right now.
Can you experienced Heli pilots let me know if what I have done is correct ?? I havn't tried it yet since the adjustments in case I have got it wrong.
ANY advice on setting it up would be most appreciated.
