B.3 Rudder
Setup
Make sure that the t/r servo and gyro are connected to the Rx according to the manufacturer’s recommendations.
For a typical gyro (like the Futaba 401), set the gain on the tail to roughly 45%.
Set the limits for the tail servo for maximum throw to allow greater servo resolution. Use the Endpoint menu in the
radio to adjust the Rudder ATV’s to adjust your pirouette rate (A recommended starting value is 100%) or follow the
instructions from your gyro manufacturer.

Now that the tail rotor slider has been adjusted for full travel, enable heading hold in the gyro using a gain of roughly
45%. Check to make sure that the heading hold is working properly. If not, refer to the gyro documentation to
determine the cause.
