Hi from Bolton.

[RookieRC]

Hello all,

I am new too rc helis, and i have been trying to setup my heli (twister 3D storm + DX6i)....i have setup the head and servo's and i think they are setup correctly, but i cant seem to setup the gyro (HL400) i cant seem to differentiate between when its in HH mode and rate mode as the light on the gyro stays on regardless.

Also i'd be really greatful if anyone is in the bolton area who would be so kind as to assist me with the setup and take it for a flight so i know its setup correctly.

look forward to hearing the advice of the pro's

Ps here is how far i have got so far in progress....this is with full rudder trim right plus additional right rudder input.

Hi Rainman,

I just wanted to thank you again for setting up my heli this evening, i have not flown it yet (till i get the tail support), but i cant wait to try it out.

Many thanks and hope to see you flying down the club some day.

I'm confused. I'm seeing two posts, this one that begins with:

"I am new too rc helis, and i have been trying to setup my heli (twister 3D storm + DX6i)....i have setup the head and servo's and i think they are setup correctly, but i cant seem to setup the gyro (HL400) i cant seem to differentiate between when its in HH mode and rate mode as the light on the gyro stays on regardless.

Also i'd be really greatful if anyone is in the bolton area who would be so kind as to assist me with the setup and take it for a flight so i know its setup correctly."

And this one that begins with:

"I am new too rc helis, and i have been trying to setup my heli (twister 3D storm + DX6i)....i have setup the head and servo's and i think they are setup correctly, but i cant seem to setup the gyro (HL400) i cant seem to differentiate between when its in HH mode and rate mode as the light on the gyro stays on regardless.

Also i'd be really greatful if anyone is in the colchester area who would be so kind as to assist me with the setup and take it for a flight so i know its setup correctly."

Spot the difference? One says Bolton, one say Colchester.

Not wishing to start a hare running, but something ain't right...

I just read same posts martin, one is rookie rc the other rcrookie, same person by any chance? Or Just extremely good friends ?????

[Mart61]

Maybe he lives in Bolton but works in Colchester? Not a commute I'd wanna do every day...

Welcome buddy, glad you got it sorted. The HL400 is a basic gyro. It may be better to pick up Gy401 or GP750 in the for sale selction and get a metal gear fast tail servo.

Hi guys, what keen eyes you have.....RC Rookie is my brother and he has a poor imagination, so he edited my username for himself

With regard to the post's he is useless at typing messages, he never knows what to say....i suggested he use mine as a guide..but he just used it lol.

He has been getting annoyed with him heli and was gonna shelf it, as its not good to do that, i am helping him as much as possible (to get help).

PS ask him to upload his last video to youtube and link it in his or my message.

[Mart61]

Fair dues, and I wasn't trying to pay detective. One has to be so careful these days tho.

So do you both have identical set-ups, are was one posting asking for help on behalf of the other?

[RookieRC]

We have identical setups....my thread was to get help setting it up so it would work properly....or at best help with HH, my brothers is seeing if he can get help setting up.

Ps my brothers name is darrel TMNT (Honors), but u have to ask him why he's a TMNT (youtube video)
