C30. A little help please guys.
Can anyone (and everyone) give me a pointer on the pitch and throttle curves on my C30.
Just got her in the air after changing from an old SR-T. I'm pretty much using the same settings as the SR-T and was wondering what experienced flyer's have their 5 point settings at. Specifically normal (hovering) and idle up 1 (forward and light aero)
Thanks in advance.

The caliber 30 hovers around +6 deg of pitch.
Maximum pitch should be around +10 deg.
Autorotations can be done around - 3 deg.
Minimum pitch for 3D should be around -10 deg.
You probably want something like 0,3,6,8,10 for NORM
and -6,-1,4,7,10 for AERO.
-6 is used when inverted during loops or rolls to prevent altitude loss.
less than - 6 (eg -10) will cause it to climb inverted.
It will hover inverted at around -6 also.
throttle curves should be set to keep the headspeed around 1500-1600 for NORM and 1700-1800 for AERO
we cant give you the percentages cause everyones will be different depending on servo horn length, pitch link lengths, endpoints, SWASH settings etc etc.
Mine is setup for NORM at -4,0,4,7,10 so that i can auto from the NORM curve,
Then both my AERO (IDLE1) and 3D (IDLE2) are -10,-5,0,5,10. difference is gyro in HH during 3D and gyro in NORM mode for Aerobatics.
