Default Gyro Programing

Hi All,
Do I need to program my Fly Sky CT6B transmitter in order for my ZD720
gyro to work ? because my gyro sure isn't working. I did get all other things
programed though. I see no mention of GYRO in my set-up menu's. And
before you ask...yes, I'm new to helicopters.
If I do have to program for the gyro, can someone explain the set-up to me ?

Thank you.

Default RE: Gyro Programing

Hi there,

If you have not set the Tx to send a signal to the gyro gain then the gyro will not be active. It sees and indeed it is 0% gain either way, at rate mode and at head holding mode.
So as the gain is 0 the gyro is inactive.

I don`t have such a Tx but I found this.
I think you`ll have to program the Tx through a PC.

Even if you program the Tx you must have the gyro gain knob at heading hold mode before you power the helicopter. As most modern gyros need to be initialized when they are in heading hold mode and not in rate mode.
