  • Setting tail gain

    Guys,

    Been out today and just trying to tweak my tail gain a little - I recently changed my servo setting from 5.5v to 6.0V and its caused a pretty horrible tail wag. As such i've reduced my gyro gain (From 73% to 64%) but im not sure if i've gone too far.

    It does still wag sometimes ( not that often) but FF flight its fine. However, If I spin 180 degrees while moving forward pretty fast, the heli doesnt keep flying backwards - the tail cocks round another 90 degrees or so.... It just doesnt seem to like flying backwards quickly.

    Do I need to increase my gain?

    You could reduce the rudder lock gain in the 3gx software and see if that helps. I have mine set to 30 or 40 (cant remember now!) on my 550 and 67% gain on my tx.

    I'm on V2 of 3gx.

    Cheers,

    John
