Hi, I'm stumped on this and need some help please.

When I switch from Bank 0 to Bank 1, the swash moves by 3 degrees negative pitch. In the diagnostic tab it doesn't change and in the monitor screen (DX9) neither.

I've just started setting the unit up and Stabi is disabled in all banks still



Why is this ? Where to look ? What did I do wrong ? ;)

Hi,

most probably your Collective pitch range is different for each Bank.
You can check Limits tab to see the difference.

Hi, thanks for the quick reply ! I will check it tonight.

So that I understand what to check : I did reset the unit to factory settings and started from scratch. I made all the setup and changes in Bank 0. I assigned the channel in the TX and tested the switching of the banks. This is when I noticed the swash movement.

Do I have to do some sort of factory reset for each individual bank ?

Are there specific settings that I have to repeat in each bank ? Settings that does not get carried over from Bank 0 to 1 & 2.

Actually resetting the unit to factory settings caused that the difference is visible.

If the unit is new, it is always in factory settings, but bank 1 and bank 2 is clear.
So if you are doing initial setup with bank 0 then it is copied to bank 1 and 2 automatically and this problem can't happen.

At the moment your settings are different between banks so you have to only load settings from bank 0 to bank 1 and 2.

Hi, Fixed ! It was indeed very different. Also found the bank comparison method with the BT module that shows the differences. Super helpful and very nice verification before flying !

Have some more questions. Best to post them new with meaningful topics so it is visible ?

First few flights looks very promising already. Some tuning to do, but I look forward to it !

Ps. Apart from the technical abilities of the unit, the commitment and promptness of your support certainly sets this unit above other experiences I've had. Thank you !!!!! ;)
