Rotate the main blades 90 degrees, so your pitch gauge is on the right side of the heli. (Don't remove the gauge, just rotate the main blades). Again, adjust your servos until it reads 0. Rotate again until the gauge is over the tail boom, adjust your servos until the gauge reads 0. Rotate the main blades until the gauge is on the left side of your heli. Adjust until the gauge reads 0. Repeat all 4 positions until they all read 0 and you don't need to make any more servo adjustments in any quadrant. It takes time, however it works with all setups. The next thing to watch is whether or not you get the 6 degrees of movement (step J). It is important that the status LED be blue when at the 6 degrees of movement on the AR7200BX. Otherwise the flight controller does not have enough room to properly control the heli. This often takes a lot of tweaking, adjusting control arm positions, control arm lengths and such. My Align 250 as per the manual was only good for the 3GX controller and nothing else. Took me a long time to get it working correctly, but it is well worth it.

Thanks,

If you keep dialing down your tail, you can turn down Parameter D to give you more adjustment room, default is middle, can try low...

My 450X is around 50%, my Titan X50 (600) is around 75%, my 250DFC was around 20 so I turned my tail gain down on it...

I appreciate all the help you two have provided
