Got a new futaba transmitter and wanted to know what people are using for a good set of pitch/throttle curves for CP Pic

Default Re: Throttle/pitch curves

All my pitch currves are 0 to 100% in a straight line

Throttle curves for me are straight lines as i use governor

nomral mode (example not real numbers)
0 45 45 45 45 this lets you plug the pack in at bottom stick and have the motor with no power

idle ups (example not real numbers)

85 85 85 85 85

this gives you power at top and bottom stick for inverted flight.

Pitch and throttle curves are very set-up dependant. someone would have to have an identical set-up both heli wise and mechanically to give you a set of curves to use.

Some people like to have normal mode set up with hovering at mid stick and others set them up like mine 0 to 100 with 0 degress of pitch at midstick and hovering above mid stick point.

Default Re: Throttle/pitch curves

I am trying to set it up so that just above mid stick I am hovering. But its hard to find the sweet spot. It tends to slowly rise, or slowly drop. I guess I'll have to just find it through trial and error.
Right now I have
Pitch 10 35 50 75 100
Throt 0 35 60 75 90

Have you tried using Governor mode? I see you have aP25 and Astro Combo, does the P25 have governor mode?

Are you flying in any wind? That makes the heli rise and drop slightly

If your pirch curve is too sensative you need to try and flatten out around the hover point
