hello everyone,
first off the fun fly was cool, the demos were amazing. its awesome just to sit back and watch the experts do their thing. anyways, picked up a futaba gy401 combo and have a jr 652. somewhere was a posting about just cutting off the tabs to use a futaba servo is it the same for the 401 or do i also need to adjust the wires due to the differences in wiring? dont want to blow the gyro up. well thanks in advance,

Using A Futaba J Plug With JR

Yes, you can use a Futaba servo (or Gyro for that matter) with a JR receiver. Since the Futaba J plug has the little lip on it, you will have to cut it off. Once you cut the lip off, it will fit perfectly into the JR receiver and will work perfectly. Just be sure to line up the bevel on the edges of the Futaba plug so they match the bevel in the JR receiver.

It will also work with the New Style of Airtronics receivers. It will also work with the old style Airtronics receiver, but you must reverse the wires... You can tell the New Style receivers, they are blue in color.

I found that cutting the tab was difficult. I had to slice little slivers until it fit just right, being careful not to slice a finger part. A better solution for me was to use a dremel and file it down to the proper size.

since i only have a six channel heli and im thinking about hooking up a co pilot since im starting 3d stuff. do you think i could connect the gyro and copilot using a y harness to the stunt mode switch ch 5 and that would decrease sensitivity on the gyro and shut off the co pilot for 3d? thanks for all the replies anyone else go to the fun fly?
