using channel 10 for the gov. mode worked perfectly

spruce,

How did you set you channel to go high and low?

If anyones interested, here is a very simple way to set up the Rev Max:

First- Go to the "Function" Menu under "Linkage" and assign the switch you want to control the RM with, to for example, SC for switch "C", Auxilary8. This is set to channel "11" in my case.

Second- Go to the "Function" Menu" select Endpoint(ATV)" and drop down to channel "11" (in my case) and set the values under travel to your percentage points for the headspeed you desire.

With the OS91 C-Spec I have 76 set for an 1840 HS. 72 is for around 1800 on the lower switch position. Your numbers may vary. At the bottom of the screen it indicates which position the switch is pointing. Forward or back.

That's pretty much it.

To calibrate, just flip the switch back and forth crossing the mid point 2 times just after powering on the receiver and it should go into cal mode.

I've not really found a need to go through the pain of the governor mode by not having a native Futaba GV-1. It's simpler with the GV-1 I'm sure. 2 Head Speed settings are all I need for 3D flight.

I'm not using the G3 reciever so I have gov on ch7.

I need help setting the switch to throw +100/-100 on ch7. This is what TJ needs to go into calibration mode.

In model menu... Governor I select a three position switch. How do I make the switch do +100/0/-100?

I did it on my old 9C but cannot figure it out on this one.

Thanks
