Hi all,

just installed 3 ds285 servos, now it wont initialise(gyro led keeps blinking)
Do i have to rebind it to the dx6i.
Need some information on where the servos are plugged in to the AR6100
I replaced one servo at a time so i am confident i have plugged them in to the right channel
but would like to confirm. Also colours on the DS285 servo leads are orange/red/green
Stock servos are orange/red/black am i right in presuming the orientation is green to the bottom of AR61100

thanks

grumpy

Do the servos move when you move the TX sticks? If they do, then you are probably OK.

Front servo is elevator, Lower rear is aileron. Upper rear is pitch (channel 6)

Which gyro do you have? If it's a 401 it has to be initialized in heading hold mode (gain > 50% on the radio) Also, sometimes the gyro will start to initialize before the receiver, when it does this you have to unplug and plug it in again. Not a biggie, just a little PITA.
