Just to let you know I have installed 3 Gyros to control Ailerons, Elevator and Rudder on my cougar, using GY 430 and GY 431 gyros. I have set them up on a three position switch as the manual suggests with AVCS / Null / Normal designated to each position on the gyro switching. The model has flown 3 times (before installation of gyros and is still being trimmed and tweaked for CG so my intention is to make the model more of a pleasure to fly at the moment it's a bit of a handful, I have not yet flown with the gyros so I am very keen to understand what issues you may have encountered during the configuration or yours. It would seem that these gyros are quite good from what I am reading on the net I may have to experiment with gain I suspect and set up some gain variables for different flight modes / configurations (Flaps up / fast - low gain and Flaps down / slow - higher gain).

Anyway any feedback on set up and issues would be helpful.

Rgds
