Easter Sunday Flights:)
Got some FPV in Glencoe:) and got all my helis flown 600/550/450:) The only casualty was a set of rront umbrella gears on the 450 when the tail dug in on a normal landing. Apart from that awesome day. No video of helis, but boy how i have missed my 550 shear power:)

Re: Easter Sunday Flights:)
I have a two position switch, auto level and beeper are on position 1. Acro is position 2 with no beeper. I am just getting used to Acro as it is not set up right. If i could assign a switch i could change the beeper. One of the draw backs of the DX6i:(

Re: Easter Sunday Flights:)
Nice Graham. I just got back from a nice evening flying on the beach in zero wind.
Flew the Glider, the Quad, and the Warp 360 for the first time since before Christmas
60mph winds back tomorrow

Your should be able to assign the beeper too the gear switch, or is there another function on the gear switch?Graham Lawrie wrote:I have a two position switch, auto level and beeper are on position 1.

Re: Easter Sunday Flights:)
The gear switch is the only one that changes on Cleanflight. So i have beeper and angle at 0 and Acro at 1.
