throttle/pitch curve problem

[noddyflyer]

hi people what is the best throttle/pitch curves for beginners ive got +/-10 which makes hard landings more expensive and soul destroying than need be , the swash mix is 50,50,-60 pitch curve ,10,25,50,75,100 throttle, 10,30,50 60,80 i need a curve that will give me +9-10 ,-2-3 ,cx 250 flies/hovers real nice on the original curves its just the landings any help would be appreciated the tx, cx ct6a thanks mick

You need to put a pitch gauge on the blades, go into the pitch curve screen and up the first point until you reach the desired measurement on the heli. Normally roughly around 30-40% will give you -4 ish but this varies on heli and tx

thanks jamin_00 il give it a go

I'm not familiar with that particular model but in general one thing that I have found helps is setting up the 'normal mode' curve so that around the point where you hover, the curve is a milder slope.

So rather than a linear 45 degree line from zero to max pitch it might only go down to minus 4 or 5 at the bottom then into a line closer to horizonal from mid-stick upwards through the 3/4 stick point and then at some point above the hover point the curve can go upwards to full pitch. This way you have a milder slope to settle into a hover and less drastic negative pitch. (but keep your throttle high enough throughout the whole range where you don't risk losing too much headspeed)

Your idle-up curve can then be more or less linear. But if you keep all the curves to where zero pitch is at the same point on the stick (usually mid-stick) then chances are you won't be drastically different when switching between the two. You can also mirror the slope between mid stick and 3/4 so there's no pitch jump at all when switching to idle-up but I find sometimes I'd rather my idle-up be more linear, it just depends on the heli and how you fly etc.

hi managed to get +9 /-4 before computer crashed (need to find drivers for t6 config) ds 480 arrived so i can test settings ,back in the air after 6 weeks
