Default Need slower piro rate.

I installed a Futaba GY401 and a matching digital high speed servo. I'm using it with a JRXP7202 radio. Due to the incredible speed of the servo, I'm afraid I'm going to over correct and loose my heli. What's the best way loose some of the sensitivity of the tail? My LHS showed me that changing my servo travel parameters in the radio will do this and they were right. Is this the correct to make the tail less sensitive. I realize that dialing in some expo will help in Normal mode but I want a solution for all modes (Idle-up and Normal).

Thanks

Thats what I do. I put my rudder travel down to tame the tail. Example is 100% down to 80%.

Expo will help for all modes, so will turning down the end points. Sounds like you need a bit of both.
