V Control and Neo setup

[keithspurs2000]

Can any of you V Control experts help me? I've took took a Mini V Bar off my Trex 550 DFC and set it up as a new 500 with the V Control and Neo. I haven't changed anything mechanically as it was previously good and within the right tolerances on the VBar slider scale. Now on setting up with the Neo it's way out. Positive and negative collective were at 20 degrees each and I had to go down to about 50 points or so to get it at 12 degrees. Cyclic throw I had to put down to 40 points or so to get 8 degrees and it's supposed to be 80 to 100 if I remember correctly? My collective curve and all 3 banks are set at 60 and -60 and I suspect this is why? Anyone any ideas or should it be ok? All links were rechecked and are as the manual suggests.

Forget what the numbers say, not needed or don't mean anything it will still fly just fine, BUT, if you do want to get the numbers to a more central position, you will need to go in a hole on you servo horns to reduce the travel

i maidened this morning and it flew fine as you did it would. I'm already on the inner most hole on the servo horn so I'll just leave it alone.

Or alternately set it up as a 600 not a 500.

I actually thought of doing this but went for the safe option.

What governor do you suggest I use? VBar or Jive.

Both are really good personally I stick with the jive using the esc wizard

I'll stick with that then.
