Default gyro question

starting to get annoyed with this, have tried to set up the head locking gyro to get rid of the tail swing after the immediate take off but i just made it worse... from what i read and tried; I have turned up the gain on the gyro, tried it on the controller too, set the taik pitch to zero while in head locking mode, everything is moving in the right direction. At the moment it is not very responsive on the gyro and every time i take off it continues to swing to the left have tried trimming it and that has no effect either, this even happens in normal mode/ 3d mode....

I am seriously lost with it and there is no one local that i know that can help, barely anyone flies helis at the club site 30km away..
can anyone help again ?

thanks

Try this video on HH gyro setup.

http://video.helifreak.com/?subpath=...=tail_gyro.wmv

About half way through it deals with servo creep to one side or the other and how to dial it out. Also if you're getting a quick wag back and forth, the gain may be set too high.

Hope this helps.
Cheers
