Hi all anyone used this gyro yet. I need to replace the 780 on my 600 and just wondered what you thought of this gyro Cheers

videos coming soon, waiting for the testing/demo video on 700E 700N 600N 600E TT360 all by GT9.

during the develop of the GT9 project, we had input from Russ(UK), hirobo(japan), test pilot from ThunderTigher, engineer from Germany, engineer from Intel(yes,the company who make your computer processor) , and china local university professors.

you will be impressed by GT9, :-)

cheers
andy

As soon as i have mine i will give a short review also, after talking to stefan Simmons i am very excited to try the gyro, hearing very good reports so far.
I will be running mine on a flasher 700 so will be a very good test

I fitted mine to the TT360 yesterday. Haven't taken her out yet, and I'm not flying around or doing anything but simple hovering right now but I'll be able to compare to the GT90 I removed next week.

sorry to bump... how are you guys finding this GT 9 gyro then?

Mines on my 450, no problems apart from setting limits. You have to make sure you have good servo movement otherwise it will set one limit and not the other. I'm sure there is some angle but I didn't measure it just mved the ball in on the horn. Also, if your using a JR Rx with Speccy Tx the gyro won't see the centre pulse form the Tx s won't centre. The gyro initialises quicker than the Tx/Rx does.

Well I've seen the gyro in action and it looked ace (but there top pilots) this is why I brought one, I fly doing lightish 3D and lots of sports flying and I've got to say I'm not impressed it looks cheap, pads where fitted already and package looked used inside, fitted it to 450pro and after making several mods I finally got limits to set as a friend had same trouble so used his mod, all seems well till you push it, pitch pumps tail kicks, piros tail bounces on stop. tail slides the helis does a 180 !! good job I can fly or heli would be smashed by now. I have beastx, Align gp750 and 720csm on other machine all lock great never kick once some better than others, but this GT9 its like i have no GYRO fitted, I'm taking it off my 450 and investing in a track tested gyro, sorry guys but I am one unhappy customer you no the saying you have to pay for Quality and all market leaders cost a packet

Yeah they are awful....heheh.

The only issue I had was that the software kept cutting out on the v1 gyro. Apparently there is a v2 now which has a new temp sensor. Still waiting for my test unit to arrive though......hint hint Andy. Lol!

From my tests was better than the Align offerings and I would say on par with a Quark performance wise on the tests I did. Just a little different way to set it up. Sounds like you may have some issues elsewhere or perhaps a faulty unit?

**Rainman** · 13-07-2011, 05:39 PM

I have tested one on my 450 pro using the standard align tail servo, but with KBDD tail blades, and was very impressed. tail held through every manouver I tried, including the ones that the previously fitted 750 couldn't handle. Although I am a committed CSM fan, I have tried almost every other gyro on the market and the GT9 in my opinion is better than most of them. I would consider replacing my lesser gyros with the GT9 when time comes, but will stick with my CSM's where fitted. The only thing I didn't like was the instructions and the slightly longwinded set-up!
