Default RE: Caliber .30 setup

Hey rreeves,

I also, recently got a caliber with the 7CHP. here's what I got: 4-S3151 servos, 1-S9254 T/R servo with GY401 gyro. If you go into the reversing menu on the radio I got channels 1,2, and 3 reversed. HR3 type swash, with Ail @ +76, Ele @ +97, and Pit @-75. My gyro is set to: DS Sw to ON, and Rev switch set to Rev. Delay at 0 and limit to 100. Hopefully this will help you out. I'm still messing with throttle and pitch curves if anybody has any idea's. I have my Gyro setup on sw B with UP @A 75% and DN @N 30%. It still wants to yaw alittle so these settings are good starting points. Well The AVCS is. I put it in Normal today and It started spinning pretty bad. I hurried up and put it back in AVCS (sw B up). Today was the first time I got it up in the air because of a training gear failure a week ago. I busted the tail gear housing and a blade when one of the training dowels slipped and cause my helo to go tail first in the ground when I brought it down. Notice the new Maverikk tail blades instead of the stock white ones. Yeah, it sucked. Helo never left the ground cause of the gyro settings being wrong, then boom, BROKEN!!! I uploaded some pics of my helo after I got the parts and fixed it up. Hope my advice works.
