Need some help on servo wiring
Hi I hope someone can help. I have installed the spirit 3 in my trex600 and going thru the steps and I find that I am not able to figure out how to get everything working. As far as i can tell everything is moving in the correct direction however the spirit system shows that the ail and ele are backwards.I can tell that it will not work because of the movements on the little heli animation I have tried a number of things like switching them between their two spots as I have aileron on 1 and elevator on 3 according to the drawings in the spirit system. I have set up several helis but never a flb system. I guess the real problem is checking the box to reverse does not reverse it nor does inverting in the channel on the Tx. If I could get some help I would be very happy. I also bought the geolink but have not plugged that in yet. surely there's something Im just not seeing. thanks
Something I said was wrong. I have on 120 degree swash and left front is pitch rear ele is 2 and right front is aileron. Im doing this with a tx15 radio-master and am a newbie to the radio but Im confident that I have the model correct but Im willing to listen to anyone who has something for me to adjust or change.

Starting with a factory default (reset) of the Spirit Unit and going strictly through the setup assist, you will ensure having (1) the correct Spirit installation, (2) the correct wiring and (3) the correct servo direction of movement, at least in relation to the FBL sensor system. This means: After successful use of the setup assist, your Heli will (= have to) answer all movements (Ail, Elev) with correct counter-movements of the swash plate. Similar applies to the rudder/yaw function. There is no way out of this!
Other topic is the correct input from the Transmitter. Which receiver are you using? How is it connected to Spirit? Did you check your valid inputs in the diagnostic tab?

Hi and thanks for responding. All my servos are going the right direction on the helicopter but on the spirit system ail and ele are showing backwards. You go stick up spirit system SW goes down same on ail you go left it goes right. I can start over but I did use the quick set up and only got this far. I am using radiomaster RP3-H crsf and it is bound and the reception bars are all filled and I get voice telemetry messages so my inputs are good I also made sure I was getting 100 to -100 or maybe its the other way around. The spirit system does nothing when I click reverse but with the swash going the right actual direction I'm kind of lost there. Obviously I have something wrong and I'm looking for new hints of what to try. I have spent around 3-4 hours a day for the last 3 days and exhausted what to try. I'm not usually the one to be on forums asking for help because I usually can figure it out but i am stuck. Just to be clear the little heli animation on spirit pc software tilts right when I stick left and it tilts back when I use stick to forward. Collective works properly on the heli and the animation. This is something I don't recall ever having encountered. One last note of importance was I had the same issues on collective being reversed and ticking the collective reverse box would not change this but when I changed it in my transmitter It did change it. I think I has to tick the revers box too bit I'm not positive of that I tried this on the other servos and it did nothing. Thanks again for your help.
Edit My Rx is connected to spirit white wire on ele/pit/ail top pin and green to rud top pin I"m quite sure it is correct for spirit 3.
