all you need to do is, make sure the rudder servo is set in a neutral position before you do anything else. move the servo up or down the boom or adjust the rudder control rod to suit, now you need to make sure the rudder has the same amount of travell in both directions [ left full and right full ] then lower the gyro gain down to around 45.

To use travel adjust to set the gyro gain you have to set the gear channel on the Tx to GEAR instead of GYRO and then use the Gear travel adjust to set the gyro gain. Above 0 will put it in HH mode and below 0 will put it in rate mode. The Rudder endpoints can then be used to adjust the piro rate.
