Pls help
Anyone?
If I am looking at the heli (nose to nose) it is the servo to my left that twitches Again it does not do it with stock TX |

Slider, I would either rebind the RX or replace the servo. Also make sure the servo is plugged in completely. Usually its a finicky servo or a link that binding a little stiff and the servo is trying to center itself but the link won't let it.

Has anyone adjusted the linkage. When I am at Center stick with a linear pitch curve, I have around 5 degrees positive.
I haven't flown the SR on my DX6i yet (30mph gusts today) but am planning to try the page 1 settings tomorrow. |

when i have it set to 0 or 1? one other question: with the stock TX i noticed one switch activated all three i.e the D/R switch for ail/rudd/elev. Can the dx6i be set to do this, so that one can flick one switch to control all three as opposed to having switch all three individually? |

the 70-30 one's are more docile. i have my DR set to 85-20 but I have had 6 months with the sim after mastering the MSR. If you go to the setup list (second page of menu) under D/R COMBI to set all 3 D/R's to the switch of your choice, use the ail dr switch.

Thankyou SO SO MUCH.. just bound the dx6i, the Heli is totally different to stock, really i cant believe the difference! i reduced the exp to 15%, but i can now actually hover the SR for the first time
Cedron you truely are DA MAN for providing these settings. thankyou sir the only thing i notcied was when pressing the GEAR/F MODE to postion 1, the heli spools up really really fast, in fact, i got a bit scared, and turned it back to position 0, and this is where it flies like a dream. im not sure if i got used to the dx6i more than the stock TX, because of the fact that i practiced with phoenix sim before actually getting the SR? but as you can probably notice, big smile, because i go through 4 batteries without crashing |

does the gyro gain on the gyro itself have to be all the way negative or positive for me to be able to control it remotely with the gyro adjust in the radio meaning when the yellow wire is hooked up to the 5th channel???????????????

It doesn't matter where the gyro gain is actually positioned. The pot setting is ignored once the wire is connected to the RX.

Google Search!
I've run across a couple of settings for the SR and DX6i in...umm... other places. Haven't had a chance to try them out yet as I'm waiting for parts...till May

Cedron- like everyone previously mentioned, this is a very good setup for the SR. I am using one modification for the Throttle Curve Normal. This change is also previously mentioned in this thread, but I think it's important to understand why a few of us have made this change.
First the change: Old Settings Throttle Curve: Norm Pos - L - 0% 2 - 45% 3 - 60% 4 - 75% H - 100% Stunt Pos - L - 100% 2 - 88.5% 3 - 75% 4 - 88.5% H - 100% New Settings Throttle Curve: Norm Pos - L - 0% 2 - 50% 3 - 76.5% (or 75%) 4 - 90% (or 88.5%) H - 100% Stunt Pos remains the same Stunt Pos - L - 100% 2 - 88.5% 3 - 75% 4 - 88.5% H - 100% Here's my reasoning for the Normal Throttle Curve change. First off, let me say that what we are concerned about are the settings above mid stick because--- this is where the SR flies and this is where we will be switching from Normal to Idle Up at some point in our flying careers. () If you notice the new Normal Throttle Curve and and Idle Up Throttle, the settings are very close to one another for mid stick and above. Therefore, when switching from one mode to the other, the SR will have a very smooth transition. It is also important to have very similar (or identical) pitch curve settings (mid stick and above). Check out the pitch settings below. This has also been explained before, but the reason that the Normal Pitch Curve begins as 42% (mines at 40%) is that the lowest setting equates to approx a -2 or -3 degree (negative) pitch. This helps tremendously in bringing the SR down in windy conditions and also helps in planting the skids during landing. As a side note, for those that are a bit shy in flying the SR at full throttle (idle up)--- it can be very intimidating--- the modified, more agressive throttle curve allows you to get used to higher RPMs. Plus, the SR is more responsive at a higher head speed. Pitch Curve: Norm - L - 42% 2 - 46% 3 - 50% 4 - 75% H - 100% Stunt - L - 0% 2 - 25% 3 - 50% 4 - 75% H - 100% Anyway, excuse me if this is repetitive... just my 2 pennies worth. |

Preach On Bro......the more I hear it the more I understand it. Any yes IU mode is more than a wee bit intimidating......it's skeeery!! Lost my landing gear tonite when it got a bit out of shape on me and I couldn't hit TH in time.

Cedron is absolutely right, his settings made my Sr handle so well I got a little too cocky and flew it over the tree tops where the higher speed winds over powered it and it went into a tree (way up!). Rock On Dude! My many thanx!

The settings I posted are just a beginning point for everyone to try. I still use them It is just what I like. I did try the throttle settings by Finskeeper, for me they were OK but went back to my old settings. My Sr Does not jump up but maybe 6inches or so when I switch into idle up mode, but I hardly ever use is so I will for now stick with my current settings. It just goes to say what works for one person may not work for the next person. I like to see people post their settings like Finskeeper did it will only help us all overall to achieve our optimal settings! Kepp them coming!!!!

Cedron, I did try 3 or 4 other posted DX6i settings, but your settings are definitely the gold standard! Please forgive me for the slight throttle variation! I bow my head in reverence! All kidding aside, they are great and much more than just a starting point. Thanks for posting them. -Fins |

I have a question about cedron's settings. I might be mixed up.
The 70/30 settings are milder so they would be the " normal" settings, while the others would be the "idle up" settings? Correct me if I'm wrong but I thought position "0" was normal, and position "1" was idle up. Do I have it wrong? TIA |

Kinda, Sorta. The 70 D/R and +30 Expo are milder settings for those that are pretty new on the learning curve for the SR. At this stage, you are probably not going to be switching to Idle Up mode. The 100 D/R and +20 Expo setting gives you 100% servo travel and begins to tighten up the sensitivity around your center stick. This setting can be considered where you want to be as soon as you are comfortable (and therefore be considered your default setting). You will use this for both Normal mode and Idle Up mode. As you get more confident, you may want to increase the sensitivity around center stick. To do this, you change Expo from +20, to +10, to INH, to -10, to -20, etc (+20 = less sensitive to -20 more sensitive). Expo a very personal thing and should get adjusted to each individual's comfort level. |

Hey guyz.. i am so glad yall got together on this .. i jus got my dx6i and was goin thru the manual and was like where do i start.. thanx so much i cant wait to try them. i got the dx6 for a couple reasons.. 1 so i can link all my heli's 2 so far most of u guys say its alot better (the SR) on this Tx.. after flying the msr.. the expo rate is way to much for me on the SR Tx i guess causes me to overcompensate and BANG..

Dazhim,
You'll really like the fact that you can personalize the settings to your comfort level on the DX6i. And yes, it's pretty much unanimous that all your helis will fly better (over the stock TX) once you bind them to the DX6i. Let us know how you like it. |
