Default RE: CPP with G110 TONS of questions.

Hey ebaysrt4,

I just got done doing this, except for I am using a DX6i TX, instead of the stock radio, but most everything should be similar. First of all, let's get the pot/3 in one/gain setting straight...as I think you might be confused...

There are two pots on the 3 in 1, one is for the gyro gain, and it is labeled "gain". Then the other one, to it's right, is the proportional pot, which controls the relationship between the main motor and the tail motor mixing.

When I just did mine, and I used the TX to control the gyro, I first turned both gyros OFF, both pots (the one on the G110, and the one on the 3 in 1) to zero, and the TX gyro to zero, and then spooled the heli up, hovered it, and adjusted the proportional (right pot) on the 3 in 1 until the tail was staying centered.

Once I had that figured out, then I applied a good bit (70%) of gyro through the radio, leaving both pots on the G110 and the 3 in 1 alone. I had very good results doing it this way, I would try it and see how it works for you. This should put the G110 in Heading Hold mode. I can't say for sure, since you are using a totally different radio, but the principals should be the same.

The gyro should be mounted so that the label writing is upright, and I faced mine towards the rear of the heli, on the little mounting pad behind the rear servos. In other words, mine is facing the rear of the heli, with the label readable from the rear (hope that makse sense) I would post a pic, but I am at work.

Hope this helps, let us know how you make out....
