Hello all,I have a honey bee fp heli that I took the rx off of my bcpp.I also installed the g90 head holding gyro.using the dx 6 tx.The heli flys well except that the tail twitches pretty bad.I have try to adj the g90 its self,if I turn up the gyro up it spins in circles ,turn it down the tail seames to get really loose.I messed with the radio with different settings and cant seam to get it to hold well.
Do you think that it could have anything to do with setting the dual rate?
Also can you please explain what deul rates do?I have read over the section on dual rate many time but I still dont really understand this?

The DX6 does not have duel rate for rudder. You would have to manually decrease your travel on rudder if it is piroing to much.

If you set duel rates you can have 2 different settings for the amount of servo throw. For example, normally your servos will travel 100% of their amount of throw. You can tell them when you flip the switch that they will only go 70 or 80% of their throw, thus decreasing the amount of travel. It will soften up the touchyness.

Another option is Expo. With expo you soften up around mid stick but will still have full servo throw in case you get in trouble.

Hope this helps a little. Let me know if I need to be more clear. I also have a DX6 and DX7.
Good luck.
