Basically I wanted to know if there were any other videos or tutorials on how to setup the server through setting up the tale and setting up the head that will completely walk me through it step-by-step since my knowledge has dated.
I also need to mention that the helicopter was previously set up with an older Spektrum radio and it hovered and flew fine so I know that everything is balanced and trimmed out I just need to know how to set it up with the dx9. Hi Planetgetlow! Welcome to RCH! Thank you for the background about your experience also that's always good to know when trying to help out.
So what you are saying is the heli was previously set up with the ARBX, except with a different radio? Something like a DX6i? Myself I would just go back through the setup after binding the DX9 to it using a new model linear throttle pitch curves etc. Then just go back through as if your setting it up from new. The setup of the ARBX is really fairly easy once you do it. You'll also have a good baseline on your tail and cyclic's with your particular radio. Hope this helps!
Click to expand Yes sir! Then do the setup procedures on the AR After that you can change things like throttle pitch curves to your liking as well enable the gyro in the radio and set gains there.
Thanks for the reply, helped a ton and setting it up was not hard. I have 1 issue i cannot figure out. I went through it twice, what am missing? Awesome information. I will definitely be picking up one of these for my V1 Rotorscale. Feb 22, , PM. Thanks James! Continuing to menu "H" we start the most complicated piece of the setup, setting up the swashplate. Each swashplate servo should be set so that the servo arm is at 90 deg to the mast.
Once you are in menu H, the Status LED will initially be off, indicating that no trim settings have been entered. You can select which servo to trim using the Aileron stick and adjust its neutral position using the rudder stick. If you end up messing things up and want to restart the trimming, you can hold down the button for 10 seconds and it will reset trim for all 3 cyclic servos. With all the servos centered, adjust your linkages so that the swashplate is leveled, and your have 0 deg pitch on the main rotors.
The linkages should be pretty close from the factory, mine hardly needed any adjustments. Advancing to set "I" you setup your servo directions for the collective. This is done much the same way as the last setup, using aileron stick to switch between servos and rudder to switch direction.
Both CH1 and CH3 had to be reversed for me. Menu "J" sets your swashplate throw. Step "K" will set your collective pitch and direction. Triple check that your blades are removed and throttle cut is on, then advance to full collective on your TX. If it does not, use the aileron stick to switch the setting until the blue light is present. This light should be solid. If it is not, increase or decrease your positive collective endpoint in the TX until it turns solid Blue.
In the bluetooth menu, this gave me an upper limit value of and a lower value of In Step "L" you will set your swash plate limits. The manual asks that you set your limits at just before the swashplate binds, which would give a HUGE amount of cyclic authority. Since these s are scale machines and are running high headspeeds, I elected to back off even farther from that, setting my max cyclic throw very close to the 6 degrees we set earlier. Feel free to set more, but it will make your aircraft more sensitive.
The last step to the main setup step "M" is to set your swash directions. Check that the swashplate is following your stick in both elevator and aileron.
Right should tilt the swash to the right, and down elevator should tilt it forward. If that is not the case, reverse the corresponding channel in your TX. I had to reverse my Aileron channel for the Huey. Then, check that the microbeast is reading the inputs correctly. If it does not, tap the rudder stick until it displays the correct color. The next few steps set up the governor, but since I am using an external receiver, those steps were not applicable.
And for the most part, that was it for my setup. Going deeper into the menus, you can adjust more, but I found the stock setting to be fine. Here is the menu if you decide to change anything though:.
The Turnigy are my current favourite based on price, voltage handling and robustness. Note you also need to set the transmitter rudder direction to reverse. Attach servo linkages and adjust them with a servo selected so the swash is level and centred. Attach and adjust grip linkages with servo selected for zero pitch.
Exit menu with a servo selected to save. The menu has 4 states. Centred no offsets , elevator , aileron , pitch When you first enter the menu the status light is off and no servo is selected. They are in their nominal centre position. Adjust the ball links so that the swash plate is level and centred. Adjust the top ball links to set zero pitch on the blades. Ensure a servo is selected before trying to set zero pitch. Warning Ensure a servo is selected before trying to zero pitch the blades.
Set the DX6i Reverse menu as follows: channel direction comments throttle normal elevator reverse see also menu M gyro normal aileron reverse see also menu M rudder normal see also menu F pitch normal see also menu M. Warning if you have non-zero pitch, make sure that in step G you actually selected each servo and saved it see warning in G.
Note if this test fails the swash linkage geometry must be changed. Note at the end of everything I went back and checked pitch at G. Mounting Orientation B. Swashplate Servo Frequency C. Tail Servo Frequency E. Setting the Tail Servo Endpoints F. Tail - sensor direction G. Swashplate - servo centering H.
