Flight Adjustments
1
In the AVCS mode, turn on the transmitter power, then turn on the
gyro and receiver power. This reads the rudder neutral signal at the
GY611.
· Never move the helicopter or rudder stick during the approximately three sec-
onds that the -Hello- display blinks.
2
Hover in the Normal mode and adjust the rudder neutral position.
· In the AVCS mode, the rudder neutral position is automatically set, and link-
age changes cannot be verified. First, perform rudder neutral adjustment in
the Normal mode.
· Move the transmitter trim lever and reset the neutral position. When the rud-
der servo neutral position has changed considerably, readjust the linkage.

When the transmitter rudder trim was adjusted, the rudder neutral
data must be read to the GY611. Therefore, always perform the fol-
lowing operations:
· Switch the transmitter sensitivity switch quickly (internal of within 1 second)
between AVCS and Normal at least three times. "****" is displayed on the
LCD screen to show that data is being memorized. During this operation,
never move the transmitter rudder stick from the neutral position for at least 1
second immediately after switching the switch in the state in which the model
is on the ground. Memorization and updating is executed only when the sen-
sitivity switch is in the AVCS mode position.

Set the sensitivity to the position at which hunting does not occur
during hovering and flight.
· When the helicopter tail hunts, set the gyro sensitivity to a lower value. When
adjusting the gyro sensitivity, increase and decrease the sensitivity gradually
while checking.
· When the sensitivity is low even when the gyro sensitivity is 100%, make the
rudder servo horn position longer. The sensitivity can be increased (up to
120%) at the GY611 gyro gain adjustment screen, or by increasing the End
