How to Set Up the Blitz RC Head Lock Gyros

A head lock gyro helps a radio-controlled (RC) helicopter maintain stability. A malfunction could cause the aircraft to lose control and crash. "Head lock" means the device is set to recognize the front of the aircraft, and that it uses this reference to help guide the helicopter. Learn how to set up your Blitz RC head lock gyro to ensure your aircraft functions with optimum performance.

Instructions

  1. 4-Channel Model

    • 1

      Connect the three-pin wire into the Channel 4 of the receiver.

    • 2

      Turn on the helicopter and the transmitter, then wait while the gyro aligns itself. An LED will illuminate and blink while this process occurs. Do not move the helicopter until the status LED indicates the gyro has completed setup mode.

    • 3

      Apply slight throttle to lift the helicopter off the ground. If the aircraft rotates left or right (without input from the transmitter), adjust the steering trim knob --- found adjacent to the right joystick --- to correct this movement. For example, if your helicopter spins counterclockwise, move the steering trim right.

    • 4

      Adjust the gain knob on the gyro to correct any wobble effect during flight. If the helicopter wobbles considerably, increase the gain; if the helicopter has a slight sway, decrease the gain. Make necessary adjustments until the helicopter can maintain a steady hover.

    6-Channel Model

    • 5

      Connect the three-pin wire to Channel 4 on the receiver, then connect the gain wire to the gyro input of the receiver.

    • 6

      Turn on the helicopter and the transmitter, then wait for the gyro to calibrate. An LED will start blinking to indicate the setup mode. When the status light illuminates a solid color, the gyro has completed set up.

    • 7

      Apply slight throttle to lift the helicopter into the air, use the steering trim (found adjacent to the right joystick) to stabilize the aircraft. If your helicopter spins left or right, move the trim to offset the movement. For example, if the helicopter veers to the left, slide the trim right until the helicopter can maintain a steady hover.
