novus 125cp small issue with idle up settings

pcsc1097 · 03-20-2012, 10:39 PM

I love my novus 125cp, so much so that I fiddled with the pitch settings (on the heli max transmitter) and now when I flip the idle up switch on mid flight, the heli begins rapidly descending. Even worse,when I switch it off mid flight, it ascends, which in a few scenarios left me struggling to maintain rpm. Just a small annoying issue that I want to fix. Any help is appreciated.

What are your Normal and IU throttle and pitch curves?

I believe they are both set a 30% with the pitch offset at 50% for both modes.

how do you even adjust it? I believe I did what you might have. I adjusted the left dial to 75% for a higher head speed at hover and when I hit IU it fell. I believe it lost some head speed. I don't understand how to set both. And how the heck do ya set a pitch curve, or Idle up throttle curve? Do you have to reset every time? Every time I hit enter after adjusting, I would scroll to something and scroll back and the expo setting will say off again. It seemed to work if I just set it and flew without trying to exit...???
What TX's will work with this? Futaba?? What else that I CAN SEE THE PROGRAMMING?

You can switch on idle up mode while on the ground and take it off and land it that way. Otherwise, you can use a 0-25-50-75-100 pitch curve for your normal mode.

Have you got your novus fixed yet? Was reading your help post and thought I would see how it was going. When you say you fiddled with the pitch did you adjust the blades any? ( increase the pitch) if you increased it the head speed will decrease drastically, the factory setting is just about all you can get and keep your head speed up to keep her airborne.
