Default Stop The Spinning

I have an MX-400, Spektrum DX-6, and GY-240. I'm new to helis so everything is foreign. Whenever I idle up the copter it spins like crazy to the right. The Gy-240 manual is not that clear for a beginner. It's frustrating trying to fix it without know exactly what to fix. Any suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks

You need to reverse the gyro. Is the rudder stick input correct? If not, you need to reverse that too.

Also make sure you have no mixes, revo, etc. that effect the rudder. The gyro sees this as an instruction to yaw the helicopter in the direction of the mix. This assumes HH mode.
