Quick set up question

crickr1 · 09-06-2012, 08:15 AM

I just upgraded my p500/brain to latest firmware,017.
No gov, stretched, also installed kbdd extreme tail blades.
Had to lower gain for the new blades,couple mm longer and stiffer then stock.
Set to default sport to start off, test hover, small flight by my house,
Has tail bounce to right (tail right) only. Not bad, but need to correct.
What advance setting to compensate?
Also have pitch and cyclic pre-comp active, should I not?
Would like to finish tuning later today.

Also just received another unit for my 4 blade/p500 scale project.
Wanted to get use to new firmware on other heli first.

Have not upgraded my Mini yet as its flying quite well, figured I'd do the 500 first since the bounce was more pronounced on it.

Thanks,
Rick

Mine had a small tail bounce with the new firmware. Someone said to lower Tail Dynamic from 50 to 40. When I was testing this change, my heli spun out of control and crashed after 2.5 mins of flight. The tail was mechanically sound, but I found some issues with the servo 4 channel. I'm hoping the MSH guy will respond to my PM and tell me what is going on.

I found results from increasing stop gain a couple points (between 2-4) and moving the servo ball in one hole for more resolution. With the updated firmware and those changes it's perfect, absolutely perfect. (Gain was already adjusted in the TX before those changes)
