sk 540 and my e5
« on: February 17, 2013, 09:34:55 PM »
I'm gettin thrown for a loop here,...I'm almost done with my e5 and I can't for the life of me figure out how this sk540 gyro won't cooperate,....initial setup was performed and all green lights from the rx input ,..but when I get to trying to coordinate the servos direction I'll reverse the left and all seems well except collective pitch is oposite,...I can reverse it in my radio but then the setup on the sk540 will show wrong input,...please ,...anyone familiar with this gyro,....I'm using jr 8717s,..hope someone can help.

Don't change the settings using the transmitter.  Except for DR/Expo's, all setting parameters are adjusted via Skookum software.  You may want to consider going through the Wizard(s) again.  However, my guess is that you will need to check or un-check the Collective Pitch Rev box in the Swashplate tab.
