Setup Tips for your MCPX
Hi all,
I have received a number of PM's and emails about the MCPX and there appears to be one common theme..
Out of the box the MCPX has too much negative pitch and not enough positive...
I have just created a video on how to correct this...
Mine flies really well now and I'm very happy with these settings.. hopefully they might benefit others...
Step 1 - Remove thethree Cyclic links and wind them out by 720 degress (that is two full turns) anti clockwise.
This will lengthen the distance between the servo and the swashplate, reducing negative pitch and increasing positive pitch..
Step 2 - In your radio..
Normal Mode
Throttle curve - 0 40 60 80 100
Pitch Curve 30 45 70 85 100
Idle Up
Throttle curve - 100 100 100 100 100
Pitch Curve - 0 30 70 85 100
Pitch Servo Travel adjustement 70% and 74%
These settings give me a really nice flying heli that flips, rolls, and flys inverted really well without the risk of over pitching positive or negative and getting tail blow out...
Here is a vid of all of the above..
