I was meaning we could get back to talkin about the Blade 400

I just installed a Phoenix Ice lite 50, and am having trouble figuring out the programing. Can any of you outline your setup for this controller for me with the DX6i? thanks, I have castlelink installed and will be programing it from my computer.

by the way I am a newby and this site has been awsome for configuring my used blade 400 that I bought off of craigslist, I replaced the bent feathering shaft, upgraded to 65mg servos, put in a 750 gyro, with 420 servo, and the Ice lite 50, and training gear , should be easier to learn with now that I think I have covered all the weak points of this copter.

Main thing to do first, go to castle links web, watch the vids. You need to set up the Throttle Endpoints and thre is a vid now to on there. That needs to be done BEFORE setting Govenor mode etc. And for running Gov. use SET RPM, then pic some head speeds, it will tell you what throttle curve to set the radio at. Flat Line 30%, 70% and 100% but only need the 30 and 70 because the 6i only has 2 flight modes
