Status: offline 		I beleive with a seperate gyro, you'ld need a speed controler for the tail motor. Not sure how they do it with a Eflite g90 gyro, maybe refferancing that instal would clear up your ?

Status: offline 		That is not correct the cp pro has also a 6 channel reciever and a gyro can be used. It even offers a gyro upgrade fro the cp pro.

Yes that is what I was saying, the CP pro CAN use a gyro, regular CP cannot, not unless you buy the CP pro bits can you use an external gyro.

Status: offline 		Actually, you can use one on the standard CP. IF you dont mind taking your 4 in 1 apart, and adding a couple servo extionsion wires to it. I actually Got a futaba rx in my CP, using the speed control from the 4 in 1, and a G90. Works better than I had ever thought.

Status: offline 		the align hh gyro is a pile just like the eflite g90. dont waste your money. it has MAD temp drift for one thing, 2nd it really doesnt work optimally with a tail motor.

if you want improved flying, the best upgrade is a real heli Tx ie DX7 heli microlite. the STOCK gyro 4in1 mixer works awesome when dialed in and combined with programmable mixing dialed in, it will probably be better than a HH on BCP. the DD tail upgrade is awesome if you can get it to last long by investing in the Correct motor that can handle higher voltage. with this tx you will be able to dial the twitchiness away from the BCP as well as improve ECCPM cyclic and colective accuracy. you will have Thr and pitch curves to get it to fly the way YOU want.

finally when you upgrade to a heli worth upgrading ie trex, dragonus, raptor, synergy, etc you will have a perfectly capable Tx for it already.
