Default A few questions about Flymentor.

I am just about to go with the Flymentor stabilization system. Before I order it I have a few final questions for the "experts" here.

1. I can use it without connecting my existing tail gyro (futaba611) by just leaving the wires for the tail gyro as they are connected now. The flymentor will only work to stabilize the heli's main rotors.

2. I will have to go into my radios swash settings (futaba 10c) and change the swash settings to one servo. H-1, I believe is the setting.

3. The blue and green wires are reversed in the KDS instruction manual. I will not have to connect the green wire because I am using my existing tail gyro.

4. Will I have to change any settings in the radio for servo reversing and set everything back to normal, then reverse directions if necessary through heliball and computer?

5. It will work on a Nitro heli as long as I keep fuel off of the CCD sensor.

6. I can assign any 3 position switch on my radio to toggle between off/balance/position modes?

FM does not like the vibration from nitrol helis, it has been done but most cannot get it to work.
If FM is subjected to a lot of vibration it can cause the heli to crash.
The answers to the rest of your questions is yes.
