so since i mounted it on top i don thave to go in to the program correct? i did do the update on it tho. also now when i follow the steps to get in to the settings i found out all my wire where plugged in upside down. so all wire should have the white to the top and black to the bottom?

im also getting a lot of beeping in the setup guild it says to move the stick up and it will fix it but it does not for me.. infact the i have no motor turn at all

That is correct yes. White on top. Unfortunately you will still have to program it to set it up. Follow Tony's excellent set-up video that he has posted at he beginning of this thread.
Did you flash yours to V3.1? If not, I recommend that you do it. Works very well.
Also make sure that you orientate the 3GX unit correctly on the mount. All the servo wires are at the back of the unit (as in Tony's video).

Not quite sure what you mean here. Are you referring to the speed control?

Follow this ..... post - TONY Send you.....
3gx,
If you follow that to the letter most of your questions are covered in there......... and have issues after following it to a TEE , come and Ask away.
The Purpose of the Videos are to help the Newbies get to grips with the sometimes complex ways of doing things .... you can pause ... rewind .... and watch again and again .... and you should have a 99% success rate if you follow what Tony's video does ... tis really easy to understand and a picture tells a thousand words..... saves you time .... saves us time and we are not going round and round in circles....
Binding is a simple procedure to some .... and hard for others .... that is why it is covered in Depth on the first 4 pages of most Transmitter manuals.

Beckmann Josh

Beckmann Josh
Member
so once i have the arms at 90 then put the links back on and see if its level and if its not then i use the plate to make sure the links need to be shorter or longer?

ok so i thiink i got the swash figured out. now, i just have a question about the angle of my blades, at 0 throttle, i have 5+ degrees, at mid stick its zero degrees and then at full it is -5 degrees, i know this is wrong but how do i adjust it.. twisting the links from the servos to the swash plate?

Yes. Settings are made at mid stick.
I dont know what tx youre using, but you should have a swash menu. In there youll have three values: ail, ele and pit. By default the pit value is at +60. Reverse this to -60 and you should have reversed the pitch.
