ROGRAMMING

Parameter 2: Gyro Compensation Direction [2 FLASHES]

This parameter controls which direction the gyro will compensate
when the helicopter rotates. Once the tail rotor linkage is connected
to the servo, pick the helicopter up by the main shaft and rotate
the mechanics counter-clockwise. The gyro should compensate
by adding clockwise rotation pitch to the tail rotor blades. If the
gyro compensates by adding counter-clockwise rotation pitch to
the tail rotor blades then it will be necessary to reverse the Gyro
Compensation Direction setting.

WARNING!

Verify that the gyro compensates the correct direction before
fl ight. If the compensation direction is incorrect the model will
pirouette uncontrollably at a very high rate.
