The helicopter performs ok.
I was checking the endpoints and noticed that the left limit to me was when the transmitter commands right rudder (right yaw.
Looking at the offside/starboard of the helicopter the blades are turning clockwise and right rudder moves the slider toward the boom.
Left limit on my system moves the adjustment for the right rudder/tail (Right yaw).

Gyro compensation for left yaw moves the slider towards the tail.
As stated the helicopter is flying ok.

Servo connections towards the rear.
Rudder on the Diagnostics page moves the Rudder bar to the right when moving the rudder stick right.

Hi,

It’s the way the new algorithm works.

When you move the rudder stick, the slider moves correctly until you’re reaching the max stick deflection, say above 95% or so, then the slider moves to the other side. If you keep the stick deflections within a range and not reaching its ends, the slider moves fine. I know it’s confusing, but after you get used to it, all is well.

The important aspect is the tail works fantastic and vivid with the new algorithm, as compared to the 3.x.x versions.

I love you can now have really fast pirouetting rates (2,000°/s). I wish I could even have faster ones, like when I had the Beast FBL on the old versions (current versions don’t have that feature anymore), that let the helicopter pirouette as fast as it mechanical could, after you was close to max stick. The instructions said the gyro was turned off at that point, so the helicopter could pirouette as fast as it mechanically could.

It was really impressive to have the helicopter pirouetting like that. I used to use such high pirouetting rates when doing stall turns or when having the helicopter inverted close to ground.
