General Align 3GX Setup Series

Yes I got the program to work... I'm new so its going to take a serious amount of time to get it up and running. Its amazing how many options there are and how many settings need to be Perfect!! Also the settings for my transmitter are not as easy as I thought. All in all lots more difficult than I thought when I got started.
I did watch them all several times. And they were very helpful!! I ended up going to the LHS because there are HUGE differences between a DX8 and DX9. The first step in setting up the transmitter on the swash type wasn't even the same.
Having said that its all set up and I've flown 9 batteries without a crash so all in all very pleased. I am having a bit of tail wag though....should I turn the gain down or up?

That is one of the issues with 5. Every now and then, the servo just seems to twitch quickly. I have not seen any adverse affects in the air from this, but you never know. IMO, 2.1 is probably the best version out there. It's a little dated, but I have found nothing wrong with it.
Hi Tony,
This reply might be a bit out of date, but the original posting on this thread as to setting up the 3GX is absolutely the business.
I followed the easy to understand videos to the letter and my Chopper has never performed so well.
The tail rotor/3gx instructions where a little bit un-intuitive but I kind of figured that out for myself - I think.
Along with the Pitch and Throttle curves from another one of your posts, my machine is very happy.
Thanks.

Tony, I heard that we have to register our RC helicopter according to the FAA rules and regulations. Is that true? I understand that it only cost $5 which is good for three years. I tried registering my trex helicopters, but it only applies to quadcopters. I would think that we don't have to on helis. Please let me know as I am hesitant to fly my model. Can you also send me a link on where to register my helicopters? Thanks.

What you are doing is getting a registration number. This number is to be used for all your aircraft. It will say (which I hate) register your "drone" That is the correct area.....unless you got into the commercial part of registration thats a different area and process.
Here is the link.....
