Default Co-Axial Mode 1

I would like to ask the readers here for help with a problem.

There are several really stable co-axial helis that can be purchased for reasonable prices....

My problem is that they are not available with a Mode 1 transmitter....

Does anyone have a line on a easy Mode 1 co-axial chopper???


HELP!!!!

I am not sure mode 1 change is as easy... did you just plug servos into different Rx outlets or did you need to move around Tx gimbal Pots?

Mith, when I first attempted to get into helis, I tried with a Blade CP.
With it being on Mode2 and me being on Mode1, it was an effort doomed to failure and I ended up selling the heli....

A couple months later, I ran into Jason (Merkel maybe?) from Horizon at Toledo and told him about it. He said he had a pallet of mode 1 transmitters sitting there waiting for people to get them. Offered to send one to me.

Maybe they have this for the CX as well, or maybe a CP tranny will work on a CX?
Either way, its probably worth a call to Horizon tech line to see if they can help......
