i have a couple small elec. but the one the dx7 is for is my hirobo

[Tommy Norman]

thanks for the link :mrgreen: very helpful and informative video

One correction for the GY401 Section, 1 point of gain on the DX7 = 2 points of gain on the GY401. For 32 gain set the Gyro Sense menu 0: to half the gain plus 50, meaning 32/2 = 16 +50 = 66% for the setting.. that also means for normal mode 32 gain would be opposite...ie 32/2 = 16, 50 - 16 = 34 (note the minus),

sorry about the mix up.

I'm new and reading alot...The gyro gain should be 72% on both or 66%.

I just watched your video and it stated 72% on both 0 and 1 rate?

Before I forget thank you and to Finless for an outstanding tag team effort to help new people. I'm sure you here that alot by I need to say thanks..

Mine is currently on 50% and flew good for my second hover session!

Should I change it??

[Jermo]

if it flies to your satisfaction don't change it. Depending on headspeed/gearing..etc the gain may be lower. The V2 and upgraded SE use gains around 50. The XL and older tail gearing use 72.

OK, Thanks
