Hi,
I am new to this site and hope I can find some good tips and give some tips.
I recently purchased 5 new 94322 servos and the SGL-01 gyro.
I am wondering if anybody has any tips for setting this system up. I am having trouble getting the tail rotor to function properly through the gyro.
I have the RD6000 radio.
If anyone can shut me some pointers that will be greatly appreciated and hope I can return some pointers too.
Thanks,
Clark

Airtronics servos right?
Unfortunately that is the first time I have heard of that Gyro...Who makes it...
What kind of issues are you having...that might help us out a little better.

The gyro is made by Airtronics and the servos.
The chopper will come up to hover fine and the tail will hang straight, but when I start to control the tail and turn the chopper more than 90 degrees it will kind of jump and then piroutte around. The servo speed is rated what the gyro paper requires.
The servo too when watching it move will move at normal speed and then after half way to its limit it goes slow in both directions, and the tail mechanism is free from binding.
Thanks,
Clark

So...
You have no binding of the pushrod through the guides along the boom after it leaves the servo? Also...has any of this equipment had a crash...Where did you get it new/used?
Ill See if can get anyone elses attention that might have diff ideas...
