align 3g tail gyro help

[loopking]

hi all ive just built my trex 600 3g . have set it all up but cant seem to tame the tail down. im using the futaba fg12 and if i lower the end points down on the tail its still got max travel on the tail.
does any one know how to slow the tail down a bit on these align 3g units

regards loopking

add some expo on the rudder channel in the TX and also pull your Travel Adjust/End Points in on the rudder channel. This will slow the piro rate. ie if its 100/100 then lower too 80/80 Lower the numbers slow the piro rate, higher the number = faster piro rate. The expo just tames it a bit further around the centre. Dont add too much though Something like -5 to -15 will do. minus will tame the centre down and plus figures will make the servo sharper around centre.

i have done this but it still has full travel on the tail even if i set it to say 20-20
this works fine on my other helis but on this flybarless system it doesnt seem to work

You need to lower the travel adjust 'gain' to 70% or bit less.
I can check mine later & pm you the setup if you've not solved it.

Tva on rudder = rate( how fast). not how far it moves, how far it travels is done in the tail set up on the 3G

if you could pm me your settings would be great . am hoping to test fly it sunday wheather permiting so i can play with the tail settings then

Am I correct noting this is the 3G flybarless model

I think that if you are testing this on the bench, you will still see full travel.

You put a command in for the tail to move, and the gyro will try to move the tail..... BUT on the bench, it wont.

I suspect its behavior in the air will be different.

But Im sure someone will jump in if im wrong !!
