There are some people that just want to tinker with everything to get it "just right". I happen to be one of those people most times, but with the AR7200BX, I have to say, it's pretty solid right out of the initial setup. But for the rest of those that HAVE to have it perfect, there is the...
In this video, I show you all how to go in and update your firmware on your AR7200BX. The process should be the same for the AR7300BX as well as on the original BeastX gyros.
You will need the USB link that is sold separately to update your firmware. You can purchase the USB link in the link...
For over a year now, I have had requests to do a setup video on the Assan (or HK) GA-250 gyro. It wasn't until today that I was actually able to do so because I had sold all of my helicopters and the gyros went with them. Well that is over and here is the video.
In this video, I walk you...

In this video, i will show you how to mount your 3GX gyro as well as how to wire it up with or without a Rx attached to it. For you 6ch guys and gals out there, you MUST use the included wires with a 6ch Rx in order to make the rudder gain adjustment work. For you 7+ channel peeps, channel 7 is...

It's finally here, the first video in the 3GX Setup Series. In this video, I walk you through every step in the gyro setup process that you can do on the gyro its self without plugging it into the computer. This will get the gyro where you could put it in the air. But more videos are going to...
