Press the mode [+] key until “FLT.mode” is displayed
on the screen. It is recommended that you start with
the 3D fl ight mode even for beginners. The 3D mode
offers a higher pirouette rate and better pirouette
consistency. Press the data [+] key until “FLT.mode
3D” is displayed on the screen.
Flight mode [default: F3C]
Selection of the flight style. F3C mode is more
precise rudder control; the 3D mode is more
active rudder control; pirouette speed is faster
than F3C mode. The mode is changed by
pushing the data+ or – key.
Pirouette rate at AFR100% to full stick:
F3C = 450 deg/sec
3D = 720 deg/sec

The pirouette rate of the GY701 is controlled by the
gyro rotation rate settings and the transmitter tail
rotor channel endpoints or dual rates. When using
the 3D fl ight mode it is recommended to reduce your
tail rotor channel end points or dual rates within
the transmitter to 75% and then test the pirouette
rate. If the pirouette rate is too slow, then increase
the tail rotor channel end point or dual rates within
the transmitter.
