Thank you, the values are looking good.
Is ESC fan equipped at your model?

When you power up the model and wait for a few minutes, will swashplate always go up?
I mean not after flying, but only after sitting at the bench.

Hi ZeXx86,

I have not experienced the issue reported by Surf Rider, was curious to know what the 3 output values represent :geek:

I did have a ESC fan(scorpion) running during this measurement.

These are raw values from accelerometer sensor which is responsible for correcting direction of the rescue - either when flying or also when model is sitting.
The rescue should always autocorrect sooner or later if this will happen - but actually this should not happen if there is nothing wrong. So something must be difinitively incorrect. I mean at least two things.

Yes, during the incorrect rescue, the elevator servo was damaged, which is why the video shows the operation of the swash. This has now been fixed.

My helicopter is currently undergoing repairs, so I will post all the data a little later. Thanks for your recommendations.

I press CTRL + ALT + M when Spirit Settings are open on PC and FBL connected but there is no response. How to run this test?

On a Mac its command + option + m, you can use the demo just to get the key combination to work it will show a popup with some values and once you have the combination then connect the FBL to your machine and get the real values.
