Setup with StudioXm
it does not match the real direction. Do not change the internal direction in
order to change the servo direction! This is only used for telling the gyro in
which direction it must move the swashplate. Be very conscientious when doing
this setup step as wrong gyro direction will cause loss of control during takeoff and you
probably crash the helicopter!
In addition you can check the gyro direction by turning the helicopter by
hand around its horizontal and longitudinal axis. When turning the heli the gyro
must move the swashplate so that the rotor will produce a counter action agains the turn
direction. So later in flight the gyro will stop the helicopter from unwanted movement.
Here the LED will always light up in blue color when you turn the helicopter to the
right or forwards and light up in red when you turn it to the left or backwards.
This is to give you a little reminder when you need to do the setup later on the field
and you can't rememeber what color stands for what direction!
