  • Gyro Dilema

    i am in the process of assembling my trex 600NSP and am facing a dilema on the gyro

    i have a Spare GY401 at the moment, but no tail servo for it, so i could get a 9254 or an Align DS650 to work with it
    the question here is does the 650 work ok with the 401

    or i could sell the 401 and get the GP750 and DS650

    i am trying to get the best as possible but on a budget, i cant afford to be buying a 611 and BLS451

    i am at the stage where i am pushing into 3D flight, inverted, flips and tic tocs etc.

    so is the 401 ok still or is it a bit old hat now compared to the newer gyro's

    all advice greatly recieved

    thanks

    Sell the 401 I have not used the gp750 but the people I fly with rave about them I will be using one in my next heli when it turns up in the post
    I use a 401 on my 450 but it's only just good enough at the moment so think that needs to be canged to a 750 too.

      The GP 750 and DS 650 are an excellent combination.
      Will probably never be able to reach the limits of what they offer.
      Nice and easy to set up too.

                  ideally want to stick with the 401 as i have this already, was only thinking of chaging to the GP750 as it comes bundled with the DS650 which is the Servo i wanted to use

                  is anyone using the 401 with a DS650, does it work ok or am i just better getting a 9254?
