T-Rex 450 SE V2 with RX601

on request, my T-Rex 450 config

hardware:

ESC: Kotronic Jazz 40 LV (Governor Mode and Soft Start configured)
Gyro: GY-401
Motor: Stock (3700KV)
RX: RX601


rx channel assignment:

ch1 (ele): rear swashplate servo
ch2 (ail): right swashplate servo
ch3 (thr): esc
ch4 (rud): rudder gyro
ch5 (gear): left swashplate servo
ch6 (aux1): gyro sensitivity


dual rates:

rud dr: 100% & 80%, no expo set
ail dr: 100% & 80%, no expo set
ele dr: 100% & 80%, no expo set

be careful, heli is kind of agile with these settings, add as much expo as you like.


switches:

gear: autorotaion and/or panic switch, sets throttle to -100%

fmode0: throttle is bound to the throttle stick, min pitch: -3 degrees, max pitch: +10 degrees
fmode1: throttle 80%, min pitch: -10 degrees, max. pitch: +10 degrees
fmode2: throttle 90%, min pitch: -10 degrees, max. pitch: +10 degrees

you might configure some throttle curves, if your esc is not in govenor mode


gyro sensitivity:

GY401 works in AVCS mode, if sens channel is larger than 0% and in normal mode, if smaller 0%. The sens can be modified by using the trim buttons next to the "mix switch", the current value is also shown on the main page. A good startpoint is 80-90%.


basic setup procedure (for those people, who don't know how to do):

1. move sticks to neutral postion, all swashplate servo arms should be aligned perfectly horizontally now, if not, correct the position physically, then use subtrim for fine tuning
2. in this position, pitch should be 0 degrees for both blades, if not, correct it physically
3. to set minimum and maximum pitch (i use +/-10 degrees), use min and max settings of the three "swashplate channels" (ele, ail, gear), but always use the same value for min or max on all three channels (be careful here, gear is inversed, so min = max and max = min!!!)
4. you are done, have fun.

I know this is a very old thread - but I am scouring the forum for information to learn about all the model configuration.
At the bottom of the list in the model.ini attachment are a lot of ������� are these "coe" and not seen as text when pasted - or just junk that can be deleted?
TIA

I don't know where these come from, never seen it. You can try removing it and give it a try. If I find some time, I can post my latest config for my t-rex 450, I'm not sure if I changed something important during the last years.

When a model.ini is saved in the Devo, it will have these "nul" characters at the end. You can ignore them or erase them.

If you could post your latest config... it would be appreciated. I used the one above and although it will bind with my RX1002 - ( I cannot get the 8768768thing to bind following the "how to's" from a few sources) but the stick dont work!
Tried everything I can to sort it... nothing changes!
First ever build and following youTube vids as helpers...

EDIT: Ignore this.. I am a bigger idiot than first thought!! I "assumed" the "450" referred to a variant of the DJI 450 X quad frame! Which probably explains why cannot get anything on the quad to work! A search for T Rex 450 found a vid on YT - heli's!
