How much does he want for it?

[Mojogoes]

If new a £130 wouldn't be a bad price to get one for as all kits have gone up.....how much has it been offered for if i can ask.

[Sqwidge]

I emailed him and he is asking for £150 cash, but then there is another blade above his for 150 complete with a scale fuz on it, i just wanted this one as he is in my town, also its not new i just checked its 3 months old but claims to have never been crashed, so whats it worth second hand, yes they are both on ebay under eflite blade 400

Change of topic, but my belt cp i have set up myself (in a fashion) and she is pretty much level she spins left, if i give the rudder some right trim then she spins right, she just wont seem to hold straight, this is whilst on the floor, when i go into hover she just spins left, my swash etc is connected properly, any ideas?

If your using a head-hold Gyro, then you will want to increase the gain, This can be done many ways, Depending if your using Dual Rates or just Heading Hold,

Or if your simply using a Rate Gyro, your gonna have to setup revo mixing

i have a HH gyro, but as im using a 2.4 i no longer have the gain screw that you get on a 4 in 1 and on the gyro itself i just have limit and delay, also the gyro has a connection with only one wire on it which is yellow, assuming its uniform im guessing this one yellow wire will go the same side as the other white and yellow wires, or does it need to be where the black or red wire should be?

...then gain is controlled through the DX6i tx, provided you have channel 5 connected to the gyro.

[Sqwidge]

i dont have channel numbers on the 6200 its labelled gyro, thro etc and i used proper diagrams when connecting them so they should be the right way round, its the extra wire that confuses me lol, and i have no idea how to do the gain on the tx as in the gyro menu its labelled with numbers 0 and 1 both on 50% and i dunno which is left or right and dont really wanna try it whilst trying to fly lol

[gramey]

The single yellow wire I believe is what allows you to adjust the gain from your TX. I had a similar problem on my Blade when I reconnected this wire, it goes in the RX next to the 3 wire plug from the gyro and I made the mistake of putting the yellow wire at the top of the 3 pins. I swapped it round and put it at the bottom and it was fine.
I think you need a higher setting for position 0 for the gyro to operate in HH mode, in the Blade 400 forum Boggy recommends 73% for position 0 (HH) and 64% for position 1 (Rate). Obviously without the yellow wire connected to enable the remote gain adjustment it won't make any difference what you set your TX as you'll need to adjust the gain manually.

[Sqwidge]

yellow wire is connected but its connected to the pin the same side as the other white and yellow wires is this right

[Sqwidge]

adjusted my dx6i to what you said for gain and rate and fired her up and she dont spin so cheers dude, now i can start flying her to get used to her, ps what is rate?
