VERY IMPORTANT! 

 

ALWAYS  use  the  special  USB  adapter  and  data  cable  included  in  the  package  while 
connecting  the  gyro  to  a  PC  or  the  programming  card.  The  common  USB  cables  for 
mobile phones or other products will not work with our gyros! 

 

It  is  recommended  to  use  the  new 

Program Card  X

  for A3  Super  4  and  keep  the  firmware 

update to the latest version

.
