Default RE: Programming Futaba 6EX for an Axe 400

Thanks, Dick

Shortly after I posted last night, I realized the "horizontal vs vertical" split on the table, and it all kind of fell into place.

As I've had two of the 6EX systems for a couple of years, I'm used to the menu and the programming was simple, but as you say, the manual is necessary as Futaba's abbreviations for the categories are kind of cryptic.

I flew a CPP 2 for several months, and became consistent at nose out and side in hovering, and could get it back after the wind blew it across the lawn. ( I also got real good at rebuilding it, but after my last crash, lost interest in the squirelly little sob) With that skill level in mind, do you have any recommendations for Newbs on the "low rate" end of things? I was able to tame the Pro by using 3 or 4 weights at each end of the flybar. Is that something you think would help on the Axe?
