Could
Someone please confirm my receiver setup:

I am using a dx6i and 6 channel receiver.

Throttle = speed controller
Aileron = L cyclic servo
Elevator = Rear cyclic servo
Rudder = gyro
Aux = R servo
Gear = gyro gain

I am guessing the rudder servo plugs into the gyro.

Yep. Exactly what was looking for. Thanks.

But if your helicopter flies upside down when you test it, DON'T BLAME ME!!!!

Which way is the swash supposed to tip when applying forward cyclic? Intuitively it should tilt forward, right? At least it does on my mcpx, which is FBL. Don't know if there is a difference with a FB.

No difference with a FB. Forward stick tilts forward, left stick tilts left, throttle stick up swash moves up etc.

A PERFECT guide, 6 parts.

Haha. I'm laughing at myself as I was befuddled how everyone's swash plates moved up for positive collective and mine moves down. Thought maybe I had the newest trex version. Maybe if I flip my blade grips over...oh well. Btw, it flies great with everything upside down and backwards! Back to my setup...at least there is nothing but heavy rain in the future forecast which will give me plenty of re-setup time.

All fixed and setup redone. Flybar pivot installed upside down.
