450 Trim On Radio

The head is set up perfectly. But there is still a little bit of a movement. Can I use the trim buttons on my radio to trim out the drift?

I have an Align Trex 450 Pro V2 with an Ikon2 flybarless system.

You need to use the trim buttons in the gyro to offset drift. If you put trim into the Tx, it can throw off the gyro and cause some weird reactions.

That answers my question. Thank you! I’ll have to go back into the software and set this up again. There must be a millimeter off somewhere in the head set up.

Also note that there is going to be some drift in the heli. The fbl will stop most of it, unless your using some kind of gps lock.

If you are flying a flybarred helicopter, you can use the trim buttons on the transmitter to dial it in. But flybarless units see face trim on the transmitter as a stick input, and not trim...and like Tony said, it will cause the helicopter to fly really awfully.

Thanks! I check the COG and go through the head setup again. I’ve never checked the COG on this heli before so that could be an issue too.
