Default Trimming & Balancing

Recently i purchased a Honeybee 2 FP with the wooden blades & have had limited success learning to hover.

I would really like to know a step by step way to trim & balance these machine's as the manuel is pretty vauge. For instance when properly trimmed should you be able to take off without having to correct for heading/yaw?

Also when i adjust the gyro "gain" it has not - or + "stops" to it but just keeps turning :F

Any Tips would be greatly appreciated

from what i've learnt i dont think you can ever get a perfect hover from micro helis.
this is taken today of my twister.

i cant trim it any better on the radio and it wont stay still without help for more than 3 seconds. this is normal



take it up in the air, note which way it drifts and adjust ONE NOTCH ONLY on the appropriate trim. reset, then do it again.

tell me how you get on
