    Hey.

    Are you running the latest V2.1 firmware?
    While in DIR mode have you gone through and setup the cyclic pitch and collective pitch range, at the same time making sure all controls move as they should do?

    Before moving onto the next step the collective/throttle stick on your transmitter needs to be at the mid stick position, which you may already be doing. From here a single press of the set button on the 3GX case top should move the led onto the second position.

    If the above still does not work, perhaps try updating the 3GX again to V2.1 using your PC and the link cable. Then enter DIR mode and follow through the remaining steps.

        Hey.

        Just so we're on the right track, so you cannot get the E.Lim light to turn on yes? I'm reading your reply and it's got me thinking if you're trying to reverse the elevator gyro direction while in E.Lim, not seeing it reverse and so wondering what's wrong.

        In E.Lim you need to put your cyclic stick full forward, the status led on the 3GX flashes rapidly, I hold the cyclic there for a few seconds, then allow the cyclic stick to return to neutral and the status led turns solid red off the top of my head.
        With this done you can advance, using the rubber button on the 3GX top face to the next E.Rev option, which will allow you to change the elevator gyro sense direction.

        Another thought, have you started from a blank model memory in the transmitter?
