Status: offline 		Anyone know if you can use rudder trim once the gyro is setup? I setup the gyro in rate mode and then switched to TL mode and it worked great. I followed the setup instructions to the T. After that flight I flew again and the tail was drifting a bit. I am in the middle of going through the setup again, but I am wondering if the tail should always hold perfectly straight without ever having to use rudder trim. Any ideas?

Make sure you arent moving the helicopter or the sticks while the gyro is booting, I think the logitechs zip the servo when they are initialized. Thats particularly important with smaller helis becuase you can be beating them around a bit trying to get the battery hooked up.
