Important:
You must ensure there is no mechanical binding of the swash plate system, when applying full cyclic control
(both aileron and elevator), with the swash plate in either full positive or negative collective pitch. This is adjusted via the
2: SWPL BASE SETUP – CYCLIC LIMIT
menu.
Restart the unit and let it power-up in normal flying mode - LED Solid ON.
Set the gain channel (e.g. GEAR channel) on your transmitter so that the Turnigy® V-Bar 600 is in flight mode zero - 0
Set the tail gyro gain in the Turnigy® V-Bar 600 unit to be in normal (rate) mode See -
8: TAIL ROTR PARAM
With the tail in normal (rate) mode, perform the mechanical adjustment of the rudder servo horn and control linkages to

Important:
In order to determine the unit‟s gyro neutral point, ensure helicopter is stationary and level for 3 seconds upon
power-up.
Ensure all 3 Gyro sensors are operating in the correct direction. E.g. Tilt the helicopter forward - the swash plate should tilt
backwards to counteract the movement. See -
