I use FP 5350 packs, my setup is the same except Bell is raised by 5-10 and PSI is increased by 5 to compensate for the extra weight.

Can you elaborate on what these do, and why you need to raise them for the higher weight?
Thanks,
Joh

Increasing PSI increases roll or pitch rate. Increasing Bell increases the stopping rate. I have found that long batteries affect the pitch more then short ones, so you may need to run more of each on Elevator than Aileron in order to match the roll and pitch rate. Whearas with light batteries it is often the opposite.
These are also in the basic menu Fit Paras as Elevator and Aileron cyclic stop behavior and Aileron and Elevator cyclic speed. These settings are cross connected, so if you change it in the basic menu it chages the values in the expert menu as well.
My 10S heli is set to 50 for both cyclic stops and +5 cyclic speed, or bell of 110 and PSI of 55.

Oh, how I wish we could get your knowledge into the wiki. That's the most clear description of these bits I've ever read :thumbup:

Hi Folks
I guess I bought the wrong battery pack:(
Will need to exchange them for the slim long packs.
Thanks for the advise
