Okay, so I received an email from GJC with new instructions, which are different from the instructions included with the unit. I will give these instructions a try and see if I can get the unit to initialize.


Setup / Configure:

After installation is complete, when you supply power to the airplane, the gyro red and blue lights will begin to flash quickly at the same time, this means the gyroscope is being initialized, DO NOT move the airplane or any joysticks on your radio at this time. The initialization is complete, when the blue light is on or flashing. At this time, test your nose wheel steering to make sure direction of the steering wheel is correct. If it is not correct, reverse the travel for your Steering channel on your radio / remote control.

After confirming that the steering wheel direction is correct, set the aircraft level on a flat surface, move your remote control's steering joystick left full rudder, and then quickly turn the brakes switch on/off at least 3 times until the red and blue lights on your brakes start flashing alternately. This would indicate that the gyro is automatically adapting to your installation orientation and setting up steering signal direction. After 3 ~ 5 seconds, the automatic adaptation will be complete, your gyro can now use your normally.

If the red and blue lights on your gyro do not start flashing alternately, this would mean the set up has failed. 1. Please check whether the airplane is horizontal, in a flat and level surface. 2. Check that your transmitter is turn on. 3. Check that steering joystick is in neutral position. 4. Check that your receiver is correctly receiving your transmitters signal 5. Check that the gyro steering signal input line /servo cable is properly connected to the receiver.

If your gyros red and blue lights do not alternate flashing after you turned your brakes on/off at least three times, or more. the automatic adaptation did not complete. Please make sure that the travel on your steering servo is at 100% in each direction and try the setup procedure from the start. After the automatic adaptation or setup is complete, you can restore your original settings of the steering channel travel.

If the brake control function is not used on your jet, but you still want to use the wheel steering gyro function please connect the gyro's brake control signal line to any of the switch channels on the receiver to perform the gyro auto-adaptation / setup function.
