Does it have the Piccoboard?
Is the gyro gain turned down (anticlockwise)?
Could the rudder control be reversed?

Hi JJ!
Yes,I have the piccoboard w/o recever.

the gyro gain is turned clockwise 90% as in the manual but i have tried the other side as well.

I know the tail rotor should move when moving the piccolo from side to side, it dosn't.

if it's similar to mine (a picoboard-plus) then it won't whiz the tail rotor unless there is power applied to the main rotors.

this (I think) is a safety feature after some people had bad experiences picking up there piccos

hope this helps
