Hi VooDuuChild and ssgtlos1490:
Thanks for your comments. Thanks for your request VooDuu. I will try to modify the template to reflect 100% travel on the servos and also post the template over on the 120 SR forum, hopefully later this week when I have some spare time. -Linac

Seems as if the faster rudder near center helps with the 120 as well, probably person preference but I used Linacs settings and modified just a couple things for the 120 and it flies like a dream. Indoors I can do slow rudder and fast rudder without it wanting to go off in one direction (still have to hold 5% back elevator on right rudder) but I had to do that with stock TX as well. But the dx6i with those settings rock, lemme tell you what!

I am an absolute beginner in flying an mSR. Have zero experience with either the msr and a DX6i. But i get both on my doorstep Tuesday.
I've seen beginners in this topic with Linac's settings but also the advice to learn without any adjustments. What do you people recommend for me? Go with Linac's setup? Or go with the stock settings on the DX6i? Appriciated.. Barry, NL |

I can't say which is better to start on, but I got my mSR last week (first non-coax heli) and I just started with the acro (airplane mode) and made no adjustments other than to dial in hover. I'll try the other settings later. I have my Phoenix sim setup in heli as that's what it recommended during setup, but haven't changed any settings on my DX6i.

Welcome to the forum! Do you have any other heli or R/C experience? For beginners I would highly recommend using the stock settings first on the DX6i as the heli will be more docile and easier to handle. My settings are not designed for a brand new beginner. However, you could always program one model with the stock settings and another model with my settings in order to see the difference if you are curious. Have fun! -Linac

Hi,
Thank you both for your input. I've only flown a simple 20cm RC heli, using 3 channel by infrared for about 6 months now. It flew pretty solid. And it still does. Without any replacement parts. Since there arent any. The fact she still flies should say something though. This little heli really got me started into this hobby. So I started reading and searching for a nice step up. Didn't took me very long to find out a mSR should fit my needs. I also seen a mCX but I was affraid it would get boring fast seeing everyone step up to a mSR. So last week, I threw doubts asside. And purchased a combo with the mSR and a DX6i. Back to topic.. Stock settings on the DX6i it is then. Thank you.. This raises a new question though. I learned about the stock TX to have a toggle switch between rates. Would a DX6i have such a switch too? I mean, I know it does, but do I need to program it? Or will it just works out of the box? Appriciated. Link, English isnt my native language, i hope my spelling is somewhat correct.. |

FP single blade helis will fly much differently from your "simple" coax and I think you will enjoy the mSR. Before my mCX, I started off with an Air Hogs heli and then a Bladerunner 3 and have moved up since then. There are supposedly dual rates on the DX6i which can be set with the GYRO switch. With stock settings in heli mode on my Tx, the GYRO is set to both 50% for both 0 and 1 positions. For the high-rate settings, the GYRO can be set to 100% (if I recall correctly, the threshold for high-rate is 78%). My posted settings have the GYRO always set for 100%. Again, I would recommend you fly the mSR with the full default settings (with the GYRO in low-rate) until you become comfortable with the heli's flight characteristics and responses. Let us know how it goes. Have fun! -Linac P.S. - Don't worry about your English/spelling - it looks better than some others' whose native language is English!

another Thanks!
I've had the MSR for about a year. I bought the BNF & a spektrum module for my futaba 9C. I haven't been happy with the module & just got a DX6i last Sat at a swap meet. Next night I bound it the the MSR & used an airplane program. Flew it a bit in the house....so-so, not quite as good as my 9C (also using airplane) but figured I'd tweak it. Found this thread & last night put in your setting and WOW. what a difference. Like others I upped the throttle curve on the low setting. I am unfamiliar with Heli terminology so having a simple "do it like this" sheet really helped. I still have much to figure out as the DX6i is so much different than my trusty 9C, but my enthusiasm has been rekindled.
I also bound it to my Polaris Seaplane...cool. I will probably have future questions but just wanted to say thanks! Ken PS, our club has at least a dozen guys with small heli's. We have indoor fun fly's in the cold times....just plain fun. I look forward to smokin' them with these new settings |

In your Mode 0, my mSR would only lift off and hover at about a foot. I modified the Throttle Curve for Mode 0 to peak at 70%. Now Mode 0 is more flyable per say. I do like the gyro when switching to Mode 1 but then the Throttle is too much for inside my teensy abode! thx i thx i |

KenVW: Thanks for your comments.
imott: With my settings, the gyro is active in both Gear (0) and Flight (1) modes. I do not use Gear mode for flight, only for startup/safety and hence it was set to a 50% maximum throttle. For Flight mode, the throttle was set to suit my own flying style and everyone will have slightly different preferences. Have fun! Enjoy your flights guys! -Linac

Hi,
Well, its been now 1 week later. And i have to say, wow! Its way harder to fly then my coaxial, and way harder then I ever imagined a MSR would be to fly.. But hence, this thing is sooo much fun. Where i had difficulties landing my simple coax, I put this lil birdie strait on my homemade platform. For the most I spend my minutes just hovering, trying to stay a meter or so above my platform. Doing land and take off manouvres. And sometimes take it arround my room, wich often finish with a crash. I just cant get these corners right. When doing left hand corners, I start nicely, but end up in a huge strafe to the left.. d'oh.. Anyways, i tried both setup's. The stock 1, with the giro on low rate, and Linac's setup. I flew better with the stock setup so it seems. I have better overall controll. I will try again later when i am not considered an absolute rookie anymore. Link |

thanks linac for those settings. i have had the msr for a year now. i kinda lost interest in it, but now have a dx6i and trex 250.
looking for setting that will help me transition from the msr to the trex 250. would like to set tx so the msr would be as close to the trex 250 as possible..which settings would you recommend? also need a battery for the 250. |

Hi haus4350:
The mSR and the T-Rex 250 are completely different helis and as such will fly much differently . I do not have a T-Rex 250 so I cannot make any recommendations with regards to DX6i settings. Try asking in the T-Rex 250 forum for normal beginner settings. Good luck! -Linac

Can somebody explain to me how to set up the d/r&expo and the travel adjust?
On linac's list for travel adjust it has an arrows for up and down or right and left for THRO AILE ELEV RUDD GYRO PITCH my radio only shows an arrow for one way on each of these. For example thro up is 125% and down is 100%. My radio only shows thro down. So I set that at 100%, how do I set up for 125%? On D/r&expo he has a section for 0 and 1. How do I enter the different settings for 0 and 1. My screen only shows Aile 0 100% inh elev 0 100% inh rudd 1 100% inh Thanks, Tyler. |

I figured out the d/r, but could still use some help with the travel adjustment though.

When you're in the travel adjust menu:
Move the stick (Throttle or elevator) of that corresponding servo into the upper position. You"ll see the arrow changing into a arrow pointed upwards.. If you see a arrow pointing left, move the stick (rudder or aileron) to the right.. And the displayed arrow should change into pointing right.. To change the value, hold the stick in that position while you input the new value... I hope you get it, its a bit hard to explain, since my english isnt my native language.
