So the JR AXIS instructions also say it has heading hold and damping modes. Like some other posters, my experience is with heli gyros (both tail only and FBL). with the IGyro, how does it handle the elevator compensation when in heading mode? If the gyro interprets the elevator compensation as "move the stick", will it then not be stabilizing anymore, or just to a reduced effect?
