Hi All,
I have a Night Ranger 3D. The 4 in 1 crapped out and I am going to put separates in it. I would like to know if it is Ok to mount the gyro to the servos. The for and aft cyclic servo is in front of the rotor head and is mounted on it's side. This would be an easy place to put it. I could put it on the tail boom but my bird is already tail heavy. Any thoughts or advice would be appreciated.

You can mount the gyro anywhere you can find a flat spot but.... the axis of the gyro MUST align with the main shaft, and the less vibration the better.
