Ok, So I maidened my raptor today! What a rush! I could not have done it without you guys!

I do have another newbee question though. My rudder control is backwards. When I push right my tail goes right, and when I push the stick left, the tail goes left (nose right), What components do I need to reverse? Just the servo throw?, Do I need to reverse the gyro (I think not, but just checking). Any other adjustments?

Thanks once again, too bad is starting to storm right now, but not even that will take the grin on my face right now :D

If you set it up like the manual says then you have to reverse the servo direction on your radio, go to your menu on your radio and reverse the servo direction on your rudder channel, once your hovering you might have to tweek your gyro, but first reverse your rudder servo then we`ll take care of the gyro, keep in touch. :D

Enjoy......................................................

A side note....you won't have to reverse the gyro if you reverse the rudder on your radio. This is a common misconception that wasn't directly mentioned above, but it was implied by Jorgecajiao. Just wanted to drive that point home and didn't want to seem like I was contradicting anyone. Better to over-explain :)

Thanks TD,

It`s always better to detail everything, that way the new guys can`t go wrong. ;)


Enjoy...............................................
