I just upgraded from a JR 8103 to an x9303 in a TRex 450 SE V2 and went with the Spektrum AR6200 Rx. Damn if I didn't spend more than an hour trying to get the 401 Gyro to work on the Gear channel (via the rudder D/R switch). I finally admitted defeat and jumped on to Helifreak to see how folks made this work. I saw several posts whereby the solution is to simply use the gear switch and set the end-point throw. I did that and it worked fine.
However, I figured there had to be a way to map the rudder D/R switch to the gear channel, and I discovered how. Some of you more experienced with the radio probably already know this, but I didn't and searching the forums here didn't give me what I wanted, so here's the info (just in case someone wants it--forgive me if this is a repeat):
1) Hold down the jog wheel button and turn on the Tx
2) Go to the deviceSEL menu item and select it
3) Roll over to the GEAR channel (on the row where the LIST button is) and click
4) select the RUD D/R selection from the pop-up
5) Hit the Ent button
6) Hit the LIST button and scroll to Gyro Sens
7) Enable and set Pos 0 to 50% (as a starting point) and Pos 1 to 0%
Of course you will need to tune the Gyro Sens--50% is just a starting point.
There you have it!
I like this better than using the gear switch (not natural to me after all the hours logged on the 8103--I like having the switches mapped "as they should be" or what I'm used to).
