Sorry if I'm in the wrong place. I'm a crusty old farmer who taught myself to fly heli, and this is all new to me.
I don't understand why Mixer Ch11 is 70% THR by default, do you not want 100% THR, plus it does not seem to effect the THR
Thanx

Re: Default CH11 70% THR
Have you loaded a template that has this setup?
With the custom firmware, you can set anything to anything.
My guess is that you have loaded a template that is using a ghost channel.
For example... Ch11 can be set up as a source for a mix on a low channel.

Re: Default CH11 70% THR
Sounds like it is being used as the pitch channel. You set this on the heli setup screen. Now why is it 70%?? This is how you adjust your overall pitch range. Who ever set up this template, on their heli 70% was probably equal to +/- 11 degrees of pitch.

Re: Default CH11 70% THR
Ok, thank you, it has nothing to do with throttle, it sets the amount of collective when the throttle is at X. So if I got this right, if the pitch is to much at a throttle setting lower the %, if not enough you can add%. Will this affect the cyclic. This is the default setting in firm wear flash Ver.V1.6015. One Hell of a radio, well worth the donation.
Re: Default CH11 70% THR
Yes you are correct about how the collective pitch works. Cyclic pitch is set from the helicopter menu, that is what the swash ring setting is for. 0 I think means disabled, which would be the same as setting it to 100. Then any number between 1 and 100 will set the cyclic. Remember to use the CYCx mixer inputs for your swash servos. I suppose you could change the percentages on those to get the same effect, but using the heli menu you only have to set one number.

Re: Default CH11 70% THR
Thanx, Gohst got it cased now. Though it confusing at the time, but it is much easier than setting each collective separately. Tried a short flight and things seem pretty sweet! Thanks for the help.
