DX7 Honey bee King 2

[inferno]

Any pointers for swapping the radio gear over to dx7 and setting up the heli? Obviously ill be reading instructions and taking care with moter unplugged etc, but just want to know what to expect.

Totally new to the heli setup but have played with computer tx's before.

I just done an ff7 on a belt cp so it cant be that hard.

Before you unplug the old system check if the swash goes up with the pitch (unplug the motor before)

I cant rember if its ccpm or not so it all sort of stops there...

+60
-60

3,4, 5, 6 - rev

Norm Throttle Curve

100 80 75 80 100

Normal Pitch Curve

I mounted the Rx at the rear of the battery tray (AR6100), upside down worked best for me as I could plug the servo wires in easier. Used sticky backed velcro. I zip tied the esc underneath the battery tray

I actually took my heli upto a guy i met through ebay today to be setup with the dx7.

Now im having issues with pheonix! the HBK2 settings just do nothing for the heli in pheonix. i cant get idle up modes on there either... HELP!

You don't want to be using the King settings for Phoenix; it'll make no sense of the CCPM mixing.

Pick a blank model entry, set it to helicopter, and use that for Phoenix. Set up a V/flat throttle curve for idle up and enable idle up (if needed) on this new model if you want that available.
