Hi Guys,
I have the Eagle Tree Guardian installed into my A26K by VQ models. I am using an Airtronics RDS8000 (2.4 gig), with an Airtronics 8-channel receiver, w/three Airtronics 94322 servo's, 2 each HS 225MG's on throttles and HD 6001 for the rudder/steering servo.

At first when I installed the Guardian...nothing worked...so went on line, updated my unit and down loaded a great information sheet on the unit, from RCGroups.

This is the web address for Eagle Tree.

This is an excellent PDF file to setting up your Guardian...for the complete idiots guide (thank the gods for this little bit of information)...

I first went on line and down loaded the program for updating my Guardian, from Eagle Tree, into my PC. Its free and after updating and updating my Guardian, solved a lot of my initial problems. You will need a Standard USB Micro B Cable (USB-CAB-MICRO) to plug into the Guardian unit and your PC (you can buy this cable from Eagle Tree or Radio Shack). Once the program is up on your PC...you simply plug in your Guardian into a USB port and its up and running.
.
If your new to the Eagle Tree Guardian...you need to read the information that Rick Wardrop put together. There is an eleven page set up sheet by this gentleman and believe me, its worth the time to down load this information and print out his guide. He makes setting up your Guardian much easier and explains its set up issues...no matter what kind of Transmitter your using.


For such a little unit...it can do many things and don't let its micro size fool you. There is a lot of potential in this auto-pilot/stabilization unit.

Soft Landings Always,
Bobby of Maui
