DX-8 Subtrim

Hey guys i kind of hit a wall in setting up my heli,

Im trying to center the servos so i can level the swash plate and set up the ar7200bx but when I use the servo sub trim i click on the aileron and it moves both ailerons in opposite directions.

What am i doing wrong?

I centered the sticks before i put in the servo arms but they are not at 90 degrees, they are a bit off, how can i center them to move on with my setup?

Thanks Guys, and sorry for the n00b question, this is my first heli. i have been practicing on my phoenix 4 simulator for about 3 weeks and im anxious to fly my heli.

I've never had both move in the DX8 Servo-->Subtrim menu, one should be aileron and the other should be pitch.

Did you select the Model Type as Helicopter. Your ailerons are moving as if its in Airplane mode.

I think I have figured it out. Because the beastx requires me to use the 1 servo 90 degrees ccpm i have to center them during the beastx setup.


with that i have hit another wall now in setup menu h you center the servos and the digital pitch gauge is supposed to read zero when you do it... but when i go to setup menu j the digital pitch gauge reads 2 degrees and when i go to 6 degrees i dont get the blue light .... What am I doing wrong?

I stood up last night till like 4 am making adjustmets to the links trying to get the correct head geometry and i got it. I got the beastx completely setup. Today i will maiden the heli fingers crossed.
