TROUBLESHOOTING 

If you experience erratic gyro operation (drifting, 
not holding well or inconsistent pirouette rate), 
please follow the troubleshooting tips listed below.

1. Always verify that your model’s tail rotor control 

and drive system are working correctly. 

%LECTROMAGNETIC INTERFERENCE COULD AFFECT THE

gyro or tail rotor servo. Mount the gyro in a dif-
ferent location, away from the electronic speed 
control, servos and drive motor. 

4HETROUBLEMAYBECAUSEDBYVIBRATION6ERIFY

that your helicopter’s components are bal-
anced. If problems persist, try mounting the 
gyro in a different location.

The gyro sensor should be mounted on a rigid 
platform, at least 6in [152mm] away from a Ni-
tro Engine. It is not necessary to mount the gyro 
near the main shaft of the helicopter but it is very 
important that the mounting area chosen is rigid. 
Please refer to your helicopter manufacturer’s in-
structions for recommended mounting locations. 

Installing the gyro sensor 

The GY701 is supplied with three 2mm Mounting 
Pads. When mounting the gyro in a larger electric 
or .50 through .91 size nitro helicopter we recom-
mend using a supplied 2mm Mounting Pad.
