Help on T-REX set-up?

[TonyThomasian]

I just finished the T-REX SE and i need help setting it up. I don't know what i have to do. I have a telebe GYRO and when i get off the ground the tail starts to rotate very very fast.
thanx

Well, I don't know the first thing about your gyro or what radio your using. But first off I'd check to make sure your TR blades are moving the right direction and also you may have to reverse your gyro.

[TonyThomasian]

I know the blades are rotating the right direction because it lifts off the ground but the tail spins still. I mae need to try to reverce the gyro like you said so.

I don't mean the main rotor blades, I meant the Tail rotor blades. Be sure to check those also.

tail rotor should rotate counter clockwise with the leading edge of the blades approaching the rotor wash. Take your tail blade and bend one in the grip so it slips to 90 degrees. so it looks like an L. Take that tail blade and put it down so it faces to the rear. Give your self tail rotor control, and the tail rotor blade should point in the same direction as your input. if it doesnt you need to reverse your servo in your transmitter. Now your Gyro.... I dont know shinola about telebee, but is it a heading hold (HH) or is it piezo. It may be that your gyro channel (rudder is reversed, so that when the heli starts spinning, the gyro thinks its feeding in opposite when it actually is feeding in more. Check that. you can tell by that blade test by moving the tail to the direction, and the bent blade should counter that movement or point away from the tail movement. If your thoroughly confused, Ill take photos tomorrow how to do this and post it. your gyro may also be set too sensitive with not enough gain. try increasing your gain to slow the pirrouette.

good luck, and Ill try and help where I can. Contact Texx also hes a super duper heli dude.

Hey, for alittle help on all thing T-REX check out trextuning.com.

I will try to reverse the gyro this afternoon and tell you guys how it went. I'm sure you guys are right about it being reversed because thats what it says at www.trextuning.com

2x check you mechanics, then gyro, then radio. Following all three manuals exactly will get you spot on. And give you knowledge of how to set it up yourself.

I fount the problem. I had to put the telebee gyro vertical not like the futaba 401 gyro. I got it to hover in my garage so i was excited and i took it down on my street so i can hover in a more bigger area but the tail keeps on waking rightand left. So thats my other NEW problem and don't know what to do to fix that.

[TonyThomasian]

Since the tail is wacking right and left very fast but the tail does'nt spin, how do i fix that problem? Do I have to mess around with the gain on the GYRO?

[JeeUm]

Sounjds like you've got to turn the gain down
