  • Tail Gain on Beastx with Futaba

    I am running through the config of my beastx v3.0.8 on my 450, I have a 10CG bound to a 6106HFC running in HS digital servo mode and am slightly confused by the gain on the tail the beast is showing for both HH and rate modes.

    I am using channel 5 to control the gain, end points are +- 100% and yet the beast is showing F (42%) for rate mode and G (50%) for HH - is this not a little odd? Even at 140% I can only get to I which would be 64% gain...

    I was expecting to start at around 40-45% on the 450 but am confused as to why i could not get the full 0 - 100% gain setting...

    Did you start with a reset/blank model setting in your 10c? If not you may have some Travel Adjust / End Points set. Have a look on your Servo screen on the 10c and see if the output is going to 100%.

      Yes started with all end points set to +/- 100% and trims and sub trims set to 0.

      There is no step I have seen to set the min/max throw for the gain channel. 1st thing I did was to flash the firmware to 3.0.8 so there should have been no stored config.

        Found the problem tonight, down to a setting in my 10CG GYRO settings... simply solved and the beastx is now configured and ready to go - just have to re-fit the Rx and tidy the wiring...
