They MIGHT Be Digital But they suck. i have owned a blade 400 the servos in it where Crap. Look up a Good Set of Hitec's The Servos being bad are the only thing that really make since.. If you took The FM From the Trex ( Witch Worked fine) and Put on the blade and now its not working? So u go down the list of things and hmm the next thing is the Servos.

They are 'supposedly' digital, but not a very good digital servo. I recall many people mentioning that when using the DS75 as a tail gyro, they noted the best success with non-digital servo mode on the gyro.

Has anybody noticed,but unless I am very mistaken,this gyro is pointing left,according to picture.All FMs I have seen have cable at opposite side to arrow point ,therefore cable is to back of heli.

The gyro can be fitted with the arrow pointing in any direction as long as the camera is pointing the same way and you tell the programme the direction you have mounted it.

Well, I think I solved it...

First of all, although I referred to the heli as stock, there was in fact one component that I had overlooked.

When it was new, the AR6100e RX just wouldn't function, so it was replaced by an AR6110e.

Well, yesterday I replaced this RX with an AR6115e, and just like that, the Flymentor came to life.

I must point out that I haven't flown it yet, however, on the bench it behaves exactly as the T-Rex with FM does, so I am confident that it will work fine.

All a bit strange this though. I can't understand how an RX could be incompatible with FM... Of course the RX could be faulty, so that would make understanding it easier I suppose.

Do anyone know if the 3GX can be used together with the FM?

tcb2185 · 10-01-2011, 09:30 PM

Why would you want that?

Just for the FM to assist while the beginner learns to fly.
