Default Esky Gyro EK2-0704B HELP

Hello All.. I have a belt CP heli and I just replaced the stock "Professional" gyro with a Head lock Gyro ESky brand EK2-0704B.
This thing came with no directions and know Im stuck with it.. I been told that you can mount it flat, others says mount it on the side?
Also the old gyro had a small LED light that would flicker then go solid once stable. This new one has a Led spot on it but no light comes on?? I have it hooked up as per the helis directions ch 4 for 3 prond and ch5 for single prong and then servo on the gyro itself.
any suggestions???

thanks

paul hello any way to post a pic of gyro good old school copy & paste
Specification:

Input signal:1.5±0.5ms
Input power: 5~6VDC
Weight: 12.5g
Size: 27 x 28.5 x 18mm

Feature Illumination:

can be used on Engine and Electric Helicopters
dual sensibility adjusting - nose locked model and standard model;
suitable for 4ch and 6ch transmitter;
with a built-in temperature equalizing electro circuit;
to both 6CH and 4CH transmitters, the gain value can be adjusted through crust

Installation:

The EK2-0704B headlock gyro must be installed horizontally (LED faces upward)
the headlock gyro (3pins) cable should connect to the channel 4 on the receiver
the tail servo should connect to the headlock gyro

you can choose not to connect the single orange cable to channel 5 on the receiver. if the gain of the headlock gyro > 50, it is in the head locking mode. If gain < 50, it will be in the normal mode
please tie up all the cables before fly, this is to prevent loose cables to touch the main gear or motor

Hello all,

I am new to this site so some of the questions may sound dumb.
I have a Esky EK2-0704B gyro that I am trying to set up but I read of settings that lose me. For instance, gain , delay and limit but I only have delay and limit on my gyro. How do you set gain?

Thanks in advance.

My friend had one on his Belt and he mounted it on it's side faceing the right. Turn the gain up to about 50-60 percent and fly. Tap the rudder left and right in a hover and tunr gain up till it wags when you let go of the rudder, then back it down till it stops and there you go. It holds solid and is affordable.
