| NCFR Rocks (even from here!) ![]() | no need for a mix... at least never was for me,,, just set gain on its own channel.... are you increasing gain as you increase rudder or something like that??

| Gohbee Dude ![]() | I have a rudder to gain mix on a switch. I have an inverted V curve so that as I increase rudder input the gain goes down. So at full rudder the gyro is effectively turned off. The only time I actually use this is for a ripper where I want the absolute maximum possible pirouette rate. |

| Gohbee Dude ![]() | It works for a Ripper. It is bad news for any other flying. WARNING!!!! Make sure that your battery and other electronics as well as mechanical parts, are well mounted or they will leave the heli at the max mechanical piro rate. I have had the centrifugal force pull off the tail boom on a shaft drive tail at this piro speed. Last edited by Flyinfool : 03-19-2008 at 12:17 PM. Reason: More info |
