Transmitter Rotor Head Gyro Gain Set-Up - FUTABA CGY760R Manual

T
RANSMITTER
Transmitter Set-up for adjusting cyclic gains via the transmitter.
Using the Remote Gain Functions (roll, pitch and yaw)
1. Some Futaba transmitters contain auxiliary gain functions for aileron, elevator and
yaw. Please refer to your transmitter's instruction manual. Assign the Gyro (RUD),
Gyro (Rotor Head replaces AIL/ELE) channels within the transmitter. Within the
CGY "S.BUS BASIC" menu
ing "Rotor Head gain" to a channel will allow the Rotor head gain to be adjusted via
the transmitter. If you are using a 5 or 6CH transmitter, setting "Rotor Head gain" to
"INH" will then default the gain to "BaseGain" in the "FLT. TUNE" menu. Suggested
setting and default is CH9. Tail Rotor Gain "Gain RUD" – In the SBUS menu assign-
ing "Gain RUD" to a free transmitter channel will allow for the tail rotor gain to be
adjusted via the transmitter. Suggested setting and default is CH5.
2. The gyro function within your transmitter should list all three gain channels. Adjust-
ments can be made from within this function. The gyro function can usually be as-
signed to various switches or conditions to offer greater adjustability. Please refer to
your transmitter's instruction manual for further details.
WARNING
Verify that the gyro compensates in the correct direction for all three axes
before flight. If the compensation direction is incorrect, the model will roll, flip,
or pirouette uncontrollably even before it leaves the ground.
Setting the CGY gains by using endpoints or manual adjustments
1. If your transmitter does not support the remote gain adjustment it is still possible to
use a spare channel on the transmitter to make the adjustments. Assign unused
channels (verify that these channels are not assigned or operated by a switch or
dial) within the transmitter. Set the "Rotor Head gain" channels in the "S.BUS.Basic"
menu to the appropriate channel. Use the end point adjustment within your trans-
mitter for these channels to make the gain adjustments and the reverse function
within the transmitter to set the mode "AVCS/NOR". Conditions with the transmitter
may also be used to achieve different gains based upon flight modes. Please refer
to your transmitter's instruction manual for further details.
Manual gain adjustment
1. If your setup does not leave any channels free, or if your transmitter does not sup-
port auxiliary gain adjustment, then it is possible to adjust the gain manually within
the CGY. Set both the "Rotor Head gain" in the "SBUS. BASIC" menu to "INH". The
gain adjustments are now made by entering the "BaseGain" in the "FLT. TUNE"
menu and pressing the [ /+] or [ /-] key.
