I think hes just turned everything up to 11 chris!!
My vortexs are about 5 lolSome say my left nipple is the shape of a Raptor canopy.......... And that for fun I chase sheep in wellies 3 sizes too big. All I know is I am 3D Clod

Those figures are simmerler to what im running on my G4, my gains abit higher. The vortex realy is fast on the cyclics

Agility 100%???
WTF!! If I had my Goblin turned up that much it would dis-appear up its own arse!! thats some crazy cyclic speed buddy! Respect!Some say my left nipple is the shape of a Raptor canopy.......... And that for fun I chase sheep in wellies 3 sizes too big. All I know is I am 3D Clod

Correct me if I'm wrong (I probably am) but doesn't the high 'style' value compete with agility? On mine I have just a slightly altered version of the stock V2 '3D' setting and I have
agility - 65
style - 40
gain - 38
elev debounce - 80
paddle resp - 100
The other thing I have been wondering in general is how much gain is 'enough'. On the Vortex I think the preset was at 40 on the gain and reducing it just a few ticks to 38 helped with what I was perceiving as a sensitivity on the elevator in FF flight, not yet a porpoising but a precurser to it. But seeing your gain down at 25 makes me wonder if I should try lowering mine a little more. Obviously these numbers will not be the same on all helis (my Vortex is on a Kasama Dune).
I need to read up again about paddle response as I forgot if a higher number means the equivalent of lower paddle weight?Last edited by trillian; 18-11-2013, 11:57 PM.Kasama, Minicopter, Henseleit, JR, Shape, Beam

The style alters how robotic it feels, the higher it is the less robotic I think? Mines either 100 or right at the other end same as my vbar. I hate robotic feel in my helis.

Yeah me too, I really don't like a robotic feel. I still have a few flybarred helis that fly so so nicely and they give me a reference point to aim for. That's one thing I instantly loved about the Total-G, it is super smooth and natural.Originally posted by JoeBailey View PostThe style alters how robotic it feels, the higher it is the less robotic I think?

Too much gain could lead to cyclic oscillations in hard stops such as rainbowOriginally posted by trillian View PostCorrect me if I'm wrong (I probably am) but doesn't the high 'style' value compete with agility? On mine I have just a slightly altered version of the stock V2 '3D' setting and I have

Too low makes the cyclic go slow
paddle response turns up the cyclic speed without turning the gain up
Too much of this will lead to the dolphin movement when the tail bounces up and down in pirouettes
hope it helps
thanks!

Vortex is my first FBL unit. I've converted my heli about half a year to FBL from FB.Originally posted by JoeBailey View PostThe style alters how robotic it feels, the higher it is the less robotic I think? Mines either 100 or right at the other end same as my vbar. I hate robotic feel in my helis.

turning up the agility to the maximum doesn't lead to have that kind of robotic feeling what we are talk about other brand's robotic feel
It is still very very very smooth and feels the same as a fast FB heli
Maybe it's worth a few batteries to play around with a higher agility and more flybar simulation
