Heli Virgin

[David Luko]

Picked myself up a 450 sport v3 electric heli, and I have been flying a novus 250 heli max before I picked this hellicopter up.Started watching the videos on setting up everything, and tonight I was unable to access the videos for some reason.Does anybody have a run through set up for beginners I can us for my spektrum dx6i remote. If so that would be awesome. I have the pitch curve and throttle curve set up everything else got lost in translation. Thanks, Luko

Welcome to HeliFreak.

Pitch and Throttle curves are really the only universal settings, most of the rest need to be tailored to your particular mechanical setup and personal preferences.

Where in CO are you?
Wow, that's the second time I've asked that question today.
...That's never happened before.

If that doesn't work, let me know and I'll ask Will and the other Support members about your video problems.

The finless bob forum has good videos and instructions. The DX6i isn't tough to set up, but the manual for it sucks. Basically, I set my travel endpoints first, for maximum throw without binding, then D/R, then my Pit/Thr curves last, make sure the gyro is set to 50% before setting up the tail rotor. Also put some standard curves in while doing testing. I like to do 0, 50, 50, 50, 100 to make sure that my centers are centered while setting up.

Welcome to the forum and good luck with the 450. I'm still a noob and my 450 can be intimidating to work on and fly.

Here are some great videos for how to set up the DX6i for a CP heli. They are show with a Blade 400 but it's not different for any 450 other than the odd fact that the swash plate goes DOWN for positive pitch on the blade 400... so don't confuse that.. the Trex 450 goes up.
