Hello,

I recently installed the EK2-0704A Gyro in my King 2 and I am having a very difficult time at adjusting the gyro. I turned the set screw numerous times to the left but there is no "stop". So, from what point do you begin adjustments from?
If anyone has installed one, please point out the steps you took to dial it in. I appreciate any replies that may answer my question.

DLfowler, There are stops in the gyro. You have to have a small enough screw driver to engage the little cross in the gyro. When I first tried mine I thought the same thing and once you get the right size drive in there you will see that it does have stops. For HH I have mine set between 1/2 and full lock clockwise.

Thanks! I will try a smaller screwdriver. I thought the one I used was small enough. I have little watch screwdrivers that I will try. Again - thanks!

Just a quick note just in case you missed it.
The 0704A is supposed to be mounted in its side NOT flat. Most people mount it with the label facing the rotor

951Dude,
Wow, I did not know that I am supposed to mount the gyro on its side. Right now, I have it mounted to where the face/label are facing the rotors. So, I will demount it and flip it. Thanks!
