OK so I got a Raptor 50 Titan, well this is a replacement because I had a Raptor 30 that I put a OS 50 in and got a longer tailboom and the whole works. I got it set up ok then one day it went nuts, over reved crashed it was bad..... anyways picked up the 50 titan kit, because I just dont give up. But I am having problems setting up the throttle and pitch. I also have a govenor the revmax pro I am using Hitex HS-625 MG on all servos. My transmitter is a Futaba TX6H, which does not have a set up for the 5 point pitch curves. But here is my prob, what is the best way to set up the govenor, throttle, and pitch curves so I dont run into problems again. Thank you !!

You really should look at getting a new radio, you are "very" limited to what you can do with that radio. It will get you in the air but that's about it.
With that radio you have to set your pitch curve up mechanically, +5 at half stick, then use your ATV's to get the pitch you want on the top and bottom (can be a pain in the butt if you your not use to setting up helis).
If I remember right with that radio, when in idle up and inverted you only have a little more then half throttle, so you can hover inverted but you have very little power for a climb out (which makes it no good for 3D flying).
My personal opinion, that radio is more of a pain in the butt then it's worth. I know money is tight these day's but if your planning to stick with the hobby your really should look at getting a new radio.

Yes I know I need t get a better radio....but it is not in the budget in teh next few montsh so this is what I have to live with for now. So to clarify my pitch I can set up just fine it is getting the throttle to work with the pitch so I does not over rev that is the issue. Or I need help setting up the govenor, which I am a bit worried about since obviously something weird happened that last tie that I used it, I just want to fly it and for it to be reliable and I wont be doing any 3-d stuff
