dx6i settings for the blade ( standard servo's)
beginers level
d/r - expo
pos 0 100% expo as req" (with expo + values numb the controls - values sharpen them)+20% is a good start point for beginers
pos 1 80% expo as req"
travel adjust 100% on all exept rudder=90%
all sub trims 0 (perfect mechanical setup!
)
gyro sw=gyro (these values should be used as starting points and reduced 1% at a time if you get a tail wag,or raised 1% at a time if it drifts)
pos 0 73%
pos 1 73%

stunt pos L 85%
pos 2 85%
pos 3 85%
pos 4 85%
pos H 85% you can up these all if you want higher head speed but 85% gives a nice speed for ff figure 8s etc ( will need higher for stall turns loops etc)
hold 0.5%
pitch curve
norm pos L 35%
pos 2 43%
pos 3 50%
pos 4 75%
pos H 100% this will give lift off about mid way between half/3 quarter stick)

channel reverse ...(swash mix and channel reverse will need tweeks for those that have replaced servo's)
thro N
airl R
elv N
rudd R
gyro N
pitch N
swash set to ccpm 120 degree's ( if your going to use these settings for phoenix flight sim also.. start a new model memory copy the settings over and set the swash type to normal 90 degree's 1 servo)
throttle cut inh
dr/combi inh
timer set as req .. switch=throttle cut
power A-EU 328
for more advanced pilots the stunt throttle curve can be altered to 100% or made into a "v" curve to your own preference
for non standard servo's
the channel reverse and swash mix may be different so to set these up first follow this quick guide.
set throttle hold or better still disconnect the motor then
move the throttle stick up and down. all three servo's should move together,as you raise the stick the swash should fall. as you lower it the swash should rise.( if there is a problem go to the reverse menu in the set up list and alter the pitch/airl/elev servo's till they all work together in the same direction.
now the right stick.
stand behind the heli.
each movement of the right stick should move the swash the same. eg forward tilts the swash forward etc. if you have a problem go to the swash mix menu. you will see the 3 values set with either a + or - %
if the swash tips back instead of forwards change the value of the elev mix to opposite what it is now set at(eg from +60% to -60%)
if the swash tips right instead of left change the airl value to opposite.
left stick
if the swash moves in the wrong direction/tilts when you apply forward stick change the pitch mix value to opposite

i get a lot of pm's about pictures,asking for specific views so i'll post them here.
elevator servo centered
aileron servo centered
pitch servo centered
tail pitch slider centered
trex500 canopy posts fitted
trex450 8grm paddles and wheel collets fitted
alternative gyro fitted
aternative tail servo fitted(im now using metal mounts as the plastic ones flex)
when fitting the tail servo i shortened the blade tail rod however a twister storm item is the correct size.
quick set up tip..plug the servo directly into the rudder port on the tx and center it.(power up with sticks centered) then center the tail pitch slider. fit the tail rod on so every thing remains centered.then pop the servo arm off and move it one spline forward.then wire up and plug in the gyro as normal.
