Hey all you fraeks out there, nobody there to help me. The only thing that solved ny problem at the moment is to set the pitch curve form throttle low at 100% to 0% at throttle full. But that canīt be the solution for the problem. The servos are all pluged in right place and and I think all mixers are of expect the swach.
Any help or ideas? Sean

Do you have a CCPM mix menu where you can change the sign of the values ? For example, if the values are 60/60/60 change them to -60/-60/-60.

From google it looks to me like the Sanwa RD8000 is the same as the Airtonics RD8000. If so you can get a manual here: http://www.airtronics.net/RD8000.htm

There is no Swash or CCPM menu. I had trouble with mine and found that the Align Manual and the RD8000 manual differ as to where the front two servo channels go. I just switched the channels they were in. Enough about my problem though.
I am pretty sure there is a REV option on the Throttle channel. yes, just looked in then manual and there is one. Does that help? Or does that create more problems? -J

If you have a heading hold (HH) gyro then you must ensure that REV mixing is disabled.

I hope he figures it out anyway. I like the idea of finding someone local to him to help. Even a hobby shop, but there has to be some pilots or clubs. Later, -J |

Thankx for the tips Iīam flying with the reversed throttle curve, when i reverse the throttle channel the swach does crazy things. But i havenīt tryed to switch the revo mixing off. By the way without revo I canīt with gyro in normal mode, right?

I do not use Revo mixing at all. I barely ever fly in Normal (Rate) mode on my Rex though, but when I do it is no problem. I have experience keeping the tail on my fixed pitch heli and that probably helps. I am sure it might be a different story if I really pushed the throttle while in rate mode. Anyway...
If the heli tail is mechanically setup to fly well in rate mode then the HH mode will work even better. I mean that everything should be centered in the controller with no Revo and then slide the tail servo until rate mode flys nearly straight (little drift). Then switch to HH. Just another note: Never move the center of your rudder channel, that messes everything up. I will have a think about a way to 'fix' your throttle, but if it is working for now GO FLY! :-)

Turn the basic menu off, page over to the TH channel and reverse the channel.
