don't know if this has been discussed or not but . i have the sparton 760 and so dose a friend . set ups are fine and the gyro is holding fine, both of us are finding that the tail dose not turn as fast as we would like. my question is how do i get the tail to turn faster, i have the atvs turned up to 140 the max on my 7C radio and it dose not turn the tail as fast as my 611, 6100 logictch gyros did, iam using the 9256 servo on the tail of my trex

Are you sure there's no D/R set on the rudder? That will slow it down.
Also, do you have a connection cable? You can go into the gyro configuration and ajust the Rudder Sensativity to increase the piro rate.

whats you gain set to? it could be that your servo horn is a little on the short side which might cause the symptoms your seeing. shame you dont have the lead as high limit values would confirm this.

ok, 19mm is miles too long you want to be about 13mm-15mm
if you setup with a little right pitch so it basically hovers in normal mode (not too accurate) then you will be about right if you set the limits to use the whole range of the pitch slider.
