Thread: New Align GP790 HL Gyro

Just saw align have got a new GP790 gyro comming out, following in the foot steps of the GP750 AND GP780, It looks the exact same design but just diffrent colours, i have to admit i do like the design of the align gyros and find them to be a very good deal for how welll they work!!
Lets hope this one can match a much higher end gyro!!!


Price: 89.99$
● Brand new intelligent control logic providing dynamic gain adjustment by detecting current flying conditions, allowing for consistent pirouetting rates during chaos or other demanding 3D maneuvers.
● Utilizes feed forward control logic to boost rudder starting speed, and increase response sensitivity.
● Utilizes Silicon Micro Machines (SMM) sensor with excellent stability to dramatically reduce in-flight tail drifts.
● Utilizes AHTCS (Active Helicopter Tail Control System) to compensate any drift caused by wind direction and force ,as well as unintended yaw induced by helicopter itself during flight maneuvers.
● Tailor made specifically for use with high speed digital rudder servos. This gyro festures high sensitivity and minimal reaction time, fully utilizing the potential of modern high speed digital rudder servos.
● Features 1520μs pulse wide and 760μs narrow pulse wide frame rate.
● Digital/Analog servo switchable.
● Reverse switch.
● Rudder servo travel limit adjustment (ATV).
● Delay adjustment.
● Gyro locking mode and gain can be adjusted remotely from the transmitter:
1.Mini/Micro heli mode, suitable for T-REX250/450(“STATUS” Red); Medium/large heli mode, suitable for T-REX500/600/700(“STATUS” Green)
2.There are 3 kinds of 760μs narrow pulse wide servos on the market, including Futaba S9251, S9256, BLS251.
● Operating VoltageC 4.5~8.4V
● Current Consumption:<80mA @ 4.8V
● Angular Detection Speed:500 degrees/sec
● Operating Humidity:-20℃~65℃
● RoHS certification.
● Operating Humidity:0%~95%
● Size:26.2×25.2×8.7mm
● Weight:7.5g

Lets hope it's as good or better than the 750.

The tail on the 3GX is pretty good,so maybe they cracked it.

looks like the colour scheme gone back to GP700, a bit of history repeating it self

error sry

ARE THEY ANY BETTER THAN THE GP780 THAT CAME BEFORE IT ?
Are these GP790 gyro's better than than a second hand gp780 i have been offered .
As i have 2x align 620 servo's for the tail's on my heli's
and intend to fit two GP790 gyros on my two second had ebay bargin heli's
a kyosho caliber 30 - raptor 30 .
as i already have a futaba 401 and tail servo on my daily flyer a raptor 30.
and a CSM 200 with a futaba 9254 on my century hawk mk3 that work fine.
your advice please .

I havnt used a gp790 yet but ive im using a gp780 and have used a gp750, both great gyros!! Th 780 is slightly more sensitive and snappier than the 750 the 750 feels smoother!!! Im sure the 790 will be an improvement and it can run on 2 cell lipo!!!
