DX6i from cedron - I must be doing something wrong

[MyTechie]

Im not a real noob, but im confused on this..
I bound my DX6i using Cedrons settings, and my tail is out of control, can I get someone who has done this to post they're gyro settings, or should I be checking something else?

Any help would be awesome and greatly appreciated.

What is your tail doing?? J

[MyTechie]

When I push left it pushes hard left, when I push right it pushes hard right, it never hovers I have to use full stick left and right to attempt to control it. I have been lucky so far and haven't crashed with these settings. I land ASAP and double check everything. Its not really important but I have all my heli's bound to my DX6i.

have u connected your gyro the 5th channel on the receiver i am not sure that this would cause your problem but its a starting question i am using his settings on my sr and love them

[jaffo24]

yeah same here i been using these settings on my dx6i also and love it.

sounds as if the gyro channel is not plugged in.

[MyTechie]

Yup, it's plugged in, it does seem like there's no gyro, kinda fly's like my heli in the late 80's, I'm at a lose to be honest. I've tried binding again, adjusted gyro settings, but I still get the same results. Guess um stuck with the stock remote for now. Thank you all for your help.

I think you may be on to something here, I was going through the manual AGAIN, and I believe I may have to do this.

After establishing a stable hover, quickly advance the throttle/collective stick upward to “pop” the helicopter up a few
feet in altitude while adding no rudder input. During the abrupt increase in altitude, note which direction the nose of
the helicopter may yaw/turn. If the nose of the helicopter does not yaw in either direction by a significant amount, no
adjustment is necessary. However, if the nose of the helicopter yaws to the left, you will want to increase the amount
of tail motor to main motor mixing. By turning the proportional trimmer pot clockwise (+), you increase the tail motor/
rotor rpm for a given main motor/rotor rpm. This increase in tail motor/rotor rpm will help to push the nose of the
helicopter to the right when there is an abrupt change in torque.
If the nose of the helicopter tries to yaw to the right, decrease the tail rotor proportional mix by turning the proportional
trimmer pot counterclockwise (-).

Ill give this a try tonight. THANKS!!!

I left the setting on the gyro stock and just experimented with the TX gyro settings till I found a happy medium. ts always going to have some twitch.
