Helicommand and swash movement

[twest38]

I need some help. I followed the instructions and set my transmitter unmixed to H1 so that all servos move in the same direction. However I have an AR7000 receiver and I'm using the aux 1 channel for my collective pitch. The problem is that on step 1 in the set-up steps, as the green light is flashing once, i follow the directions with movement of transmitter controls to their full travel . However, the last step is full collective pitch then relese set button, my swash does not move up in a uniformed manner, it tilts. I see the problem in that the servos do not move in the same directions. Is it possible that that directions on page 20 of the instruction booklet(single servo H1) state for me to plug the pitch in port 3, thats my rudder port, may pitch in on aux 1. Could that be a problem ? Thanks for your help

Mate, as difficult as it is, you really need to read and re-read the HC manual a few more times. Collective pitch servo is port 3 on the HC unit, but it goes to your Aux1 on your Rx. That is, the HC ports # has nothing to do with your Rx chanel #'s. Just hook up your Rx channels same as you normally would.

You also need to follow the rest of the Setup procedures to get things working properly. If you cannot get it to work after this, maybe try swapping over the Aileron/Pitch servos and try again.

Good luck and Cheers,
