Yes, you would just have to use the keyboard for other channels, actually the TX for the blade has 5 channels, so you can use the wheel on the back for something, I used to use it for wheel brakes, and Channel 6 gets linked to the throttle, which sort of works throttle up Ch6 down if my memory serves. as to flying 4D helis what I did was create a copy of the tx specially, and linked the throttle to Ch5 while the normal throttle channel which I think (not sure mind) is 4? That way the top half of the stick is up and the bottom half down, so leaving you free to fly inverted, if you can handle those 3d jobbies, which I can't, I keep crashing them.

Flying 4D helis? Time travel now possible Sry meant 3D

^^^^^jesus jb its a wonder you can get off the gound!!^^^^^

go to the my controls menu click on new.
put a name in the box and click advanced
click on throttle and in the drop down menu set channel1
ignore retract/brake/smoke for now leave or set them unmapped
click collective pitch. set channel 1
click cyclic pitch. set channel 3
click cyclic roll. set channel 2
click tail rotor set channel 4

scroll down
click throttle hold and set to numberpad1
click idle up and set to numberpad3
click toggle h/h and set to numberpad5

now you can go back and assign brakes retracts etc to any other numbers

then click accept or finnished at the bottom

qick edit
you will need to put a cross in the following boxes in the invert columb
throttle
collective pitch
cyclic pitch

once all set up go to the my transmiter menu and follow the calibration guide. move each control sevral times!

and as gordon ramsey says done!

click collective pitch. set channel 1
click cyclic pitch. set channel 3

Are they the right way around?

Cheers,
Rob

[Boggy]

yes rob collective and throttle both use channel 1.
cyclic pitch(elv) is 3

bit confusing cos phonix calls them both pitch instead of elv/etc

[robgt]

DOH!
Not thinking straight (too much database work today!)
Glad you know though!
Cheers,
Rob

Thanks Boggy will do. I'm acually getting the Blade for my sons birthday in March (thats my story anyway) and i'm just trying to get a few things straight in my head as i'm new to all of this myself. But thanks again for the heads up and i will take you up on your offer, much obliged.
