FlyMentor Set Up Help Needed: Collective is backwards

Steve Joblin · 07-08-2012, 08:59 AM

I have my swash tilting the correct way for let, right, forward, and backwards, but my collective is backwards... increasing the throttle lowers the swash.

Normally, I would just change the swash mixing from positive to negative numbers in the transmitter, but how do you do it when using Flymentor?

You can change it similarly in Helibal but if it affects other control aspects you may need to swap Ail & Pit connections on FM and re-do.

I'm not following... I'm confused between the NOR and REV settings on the "Servo" tab vs. the "Control" tab. What is the difference?

Servo tab reverses the servos. Control tab reverses stick directions.
So if it is only collective pitch direction that is incorrect reversing pitch under the control tab will correct it.
