Igyro delta wing only on (AILE-A / ELEV-A)?
Ok last night I was trying to setup my (IGYRO-E3) on my delta wing Jet. Each wing have two servos on independent receivers for redundancy and it work perfectly for years (please don't question my redundancy phobia lol). Here is my problem...when I program the gyro for delta wing only input ELEV-A and AILE-A function in delta mode. ELEV-B and AILE-B function without the delta mix...is this normal?

FYI, when I set up my V-tail Fouga Magister with the Igyro-e3 I had to disable the RUDD/ELVE mixing in the transmitter (as per the "pop-up" instructions when I programmed the gyro), because the I gyro handles the mixing. I'm sure its the same with Elvons.

Need a little more clarification. Not sure how you are trying to use one gyro with a two receiver set up.

My problem is only (Ail-A) and (ELE-A) delta function works. So in other words...Half the gyro function as delta wing and half convention wing. Program was done via computer.
My Cortex gyro on another jet works ok with the same setup.
P.S there is no delta mix in my TX.

Well the gyro have 5 inputs and 5 output each signal independent of each other. One of my two (futaba system) receivers output goes into Igyro (Ail-A) and (ELE-A)the other receiver goes into (Ail-b and Ele-B).
My problem is only (Ail-A) and (ELE-A) delta function works. So in other words...Half the gyro function as delta wing and half convention wing. Program was done via computer.
My Cortex gyro on another jet works ok with the same setup.

I have the same arrangement as you on 2 deltas. i.e. there are 2 elevons per side for redundancy as they are over the UK weight limit. I have a different gyro but the principle is the same, the outer servos that have the most effect to control roll are connected to the gyro. This damps out the un-commanded movement. This way if the gyro fails for any reason there is still one elevon each side working. I do not have gyro on elevator movement and the elevons are set up from the transmitter. The plane is rock steady when flying.

I might have to steal your setup. I really think IGYRO overlook something in the code..because it just don't make sense to have half the gyro function as delta and half standard wing setup.

Cool setup man!! I'm happy to see I'm not the only one with crazy redundancy setup I might have to steal your setup. I really think IGYRO overlook something in the code..because it just don't make sense to have half the gyro function as delta and half standard wing setup.

I would be surprise if you didn't have 2 RX, 2 batteries
. I like how your gyro is on a separate servos... Sounds even better that way.
"Redundancy" that's the only part of the "hobby I don't keep it simple"
