My issue is that the helicopter doesn't turn quick enough until you move the rudder stick past 50%. This settings messes with my collective control and would prefer that I was able to use 25% to turn the helicopter quick enough during FF turns. The piro rate is not the problem...I can make it piro with a blurr but in FF mode I gotta turn the Rudder stick far in either directions to get it to turn with authority in FF.
I remember my Gy401...just turn up the travel mode to 120% and ATV 125% and it turned on a dime.
Rudder ATV 125% (Both Directions) Gyro Gain is 29% in HH mode Gyro Gain is 20% in NON-HH mode
Mechanical is perfect no binding.
Servo horn shows APPOX 15mm from center.

Add some positive expo (IE more sensitivity off center) to the rudder channel until the sensitivity of the first 50% of stick travel feels like you want it to.

Dr.Ben / Bart BThank you
I will try your suggestions....
My RDS8000 when you add + to expo it slows it down so I will add - and see how that goes.

Good. That's why I specified. Different mfg's define expo differently. ATX follows the JR definition; Futaba gets softer with negative.

Change from 3D to F3C this might work you might need to turn gain down after .I run my gain between 27% and 30 %.125% in both directions is fast
I dont know how to fly just how to not crash !!!!!
