Forza Ex & Spirit problems

Hi,
I installed spirit fbl on my Forza Ex and I have a problem with the min max cyclic pitch.

If I adjust the min to - 12°, the Max is 8°

I checked the 0°, the calibration stick +/-100% is correct.

How can I do to be symetric?

Thanks and sorry for my bad English

Hi,

first from all I recommend to check, if you are getting 0° angle on the blades when you enable Subtrim (tuning).
In this case, it is necessary that servo horns are at 90°, perpendicular do push rods.

In some cases it is really not possible to configure equal throw for both sides, so you have to use Servo Travel Correction (Servos tab).

The 2 first step are OK, so I will try to use servo tab tonight. I use the mks92A+
Thanks for your quick response

OK, the use of the servo tab solved my first problem. Thanks

I finished the tune of the Spirit but now I have a new problem.
When I move the cyclic ring with the pitch stick and I stop it, , the cyclic ring oscillate fast, and it doesn't stop to oscillate even with the cyclic gain at min.
I have the 6° at 82. I don't know if it could be the problem. :/

What do you mean with Cyclic Ring? Is it Cyclic Ring - Aileron / Elevator Range in the software?

Could you attach your settings here?

Sorry, by Cyclic Ring, I mean swashplate. :oops:

Now, I just power on my Forza, and I do not have the swash plate that oscillates when I move the pitch stick :D

Here is my settings

Good,
maybe your collective pitch was out of range - more than 100% in the diagnostics tab. If you have changed this then it is OK now.

First test flight. Whaoo, amazing! The feeling is better than my old beastX.
And the management of the rudder excellent!
I think I will have fun this weekend! [emoji2]

Great. For the rudder, I recommend to increase maybe Piro Consistency parameter little bit higher (155 - 160) if your tail is not holding perfectly.
