Help!!!

I just got a optic 6 TX for my HB2 CP. I need some help seting it up.

Has anyone done it, if so can you give me some help???

I don't know anyone that can help me....


Thanks

Look at your 4-in-1 box, the freq # should be listed. Match it to a channel and setup the spectral to that channel or buy the crystal.
Goto heli swashplate setup and choose ccpm type. You might need to change the +/- sign of each servos to get the swash to move properly. Leave it at 70%, just change the +/- sign. Next verify the cyclic movement is correct by changing servo direction.

You probably also want to turn the mixer all the way down on the 4-in-1 (I think it's the delay pot) and setup revo mixing on the radio.

You should do all of these with the motor disconnected.

Next setup the pitch/throttle curve. This should be enough to get it flying again. You will want to setup other goodies on the tx as well. The manual is pretty clear.

Thanks, I will give that a try.

Could you post all of the settings, I'm really new at this and I'm having lots of trouble getting this done.

Any more help would be great.

Here are the settings off mine.

Swah Ch1-(+70) Ch2-(+70) Ch6-(+40)

Pitch Curve for learning hover. 50-60-73-86-100

Throttle Curve. 0-40-70-85-100

Reverse channels 2 and 6.

Just like on your old radio you will have to take throttle and throttle trim all the way down to get heli are arm (green light)

This are just the basic settings you will have to do some more triming but this will get you in the air.

When you are ready for 3D your pitch curve will be more like 0-25-50-75-100, throttle 100-90-80-90-100, use idle up 1 for this.

Hope this helps.

Why is ch6(+40)? Not saying it wrong or anything, just curious. Is the servo control link hooked up differently? Is it hooked up to a closer hole on the horn?
My stock HB came that way. 2 was higher and 1 lower when at 0 pitch with level swash. I reconnected everything using the outer most hole and adjusted the length. It gave me more even response and greater overall movement range.


Gorf, on the pitch curve, you may also try setting it flat to 90-90-90-90-90. You end up with FP which may be easier to practice on.

Channel 6 is what controls the amount of pitch, you don't want to go over +/- 10 degrees.
