Here,try this.


I have experimented with loads of settings and find that these work well for me I use Helicopter Model Type
D/R and Expo set /Aileron/ Elevator and Rudder set Sw: to F Mode
F Mode Switch Position 2 ( in door use )
Pos: Stunt 2 = Aileron D/R = 75 Expo = 0 / Elevator D/R = 75 Expo = 0 / Rudder D/R = 125 Expo = 0
F Mode Switch Position 1
Pos: Stunt 1 = Aileron D/R = 100 Expo = 0 / Elevator D/R = 100 Expo = 0 / Rudder D/R = 125 Expo = 0
F Mode Switch Position 0
Pos: Normal = Aileron D/R = 125 Expo = 0 / Elevator D/R = 125 Expo = 0 / Rudder D/R = 125 Expo = 0
You can switch position round if you preferred making (Normal D/R = 75 and Stunt 2 D/R = 125)
Throttle Curve
Position N / 1 / 2 all the same / Low = 0% / 25% = 55% / 50% = 70% / 75% = 85% / High = 100%
I have tried different Expo settings you don’t want + expo it makes the stick feel unresponsive and a little dead at centre position if you are an absolute beginner better to reduce D/R settings from 75 to say 25 or even 15 to start with have tried different – Expo as recommended by others they work well but seems a bit twitchy on recovery of fast moves don’t know why? So I prefer 0 Expo on everything hope these setting are of some use to someone
