It was fine, I just mounted my receiver in a different orientation than you did. Thanks so much, now I can fly it finally!

That's why I do it. To help others!

1. You do not need to use the flight modes in the transmitter to control the flight modes in the receiver. They are not necessarily related. All you need to do is go into "Channel Assign" and assign switch B to AUX2 and it will control the flight modes in the receiver. This will allow you to use the flight modes in the transmitter for other things, such as flight mode trims in each position of the flaps. In that case, you'd assign the flap switch (D) to the flight modes and enable the FM trims for aileron and elevator. 2. You were supposed to select the gain channel in the "First Time AS3X Setup", not the FM switch. If you had set up the gain channel on a knob (you can also use a 3-position switch, but it's more complicated), you would be able to adjust the AS3X gains in-flight. If you don't set up the gain channel then you MUST change the AS3X gains from adjustable to fixed. Otherwise, the AS3X gains will be zero. 3. Flipping the plane upside down and rocking it thru level does not prove AS3X or SAFE will correct in the proper direction. You must actually look at which way the control surfaces move. The ailerons will zip back and forth even if they are reversed. All you need to do is tilt the plane about 45° from upright level in each direction and make sure the ailerons and elevator move in the proper direction to return the plane to level flight. Basically, when you raise a wingtip, the aileron on that tip should deflect upward. And when you raise the tail, the elevator should deflect upward. 4. Run the "Relearn Servo Settings" routine after you make any changes to the servo direction, sub trim, or travel and recheck the control surface movements before flight. 5. Remove the propeller from electric planes until you're done setting them up. It does not hurt a brushless motor to run it without a prop on it.

Nice job! it took me a long time to figure out forward programming and you did a nice job explaining it and highlighting the two or three issues that most people get stuck on. The only thing that was not mention and I assume you purposely left it out because it is challenging was setting the gain which controls the amount of gyro deflection you get in AS3X. When you set the gains to fixed I’m not sure what it defaults too, maybe the gain settings that are in the SAFE/AS3X mode (your mode one) which appears Ok based on the amount of movement I could see and hear The way I was taught to set gains was to set the forward programming gain to adjustable then put the “adjustment” on your transmitter slider or knob for each control surface (ailerons, rudder and elevator) fly it with the gain at zero and turn the gain up until the control surfaces start to chatter and then slightly back them off and use that value (there is a feature in forward programming that allows you to lock in that value). Every plane is different and planes with larger control surface, for example a 3D plane, require less gain. Also the rudder for example can take more gain than the aileron. This can be time consuming, complicated and challenging. Some folks set the gains for a sport plane to 30 and that seems to be a good starting point. Anyway, you did a nice job and that will get the majority of people flying. Those who want to dial in their plane should look further into settings the gain values for the gyro (AS3X) for each control surface. I enjoy watching your videos, please keep them rolling! Tom

Good video. Next I want to be able to adjust my AS3X gains while in flight. 1st I need to be able to do it on my AR636A . I installed it in my Banshee 64mm after reprogramming it. Maiden flight went well. Now time to fine tune it and mechanically trim it out so it’s spot on without using trim tabs. I do this by trimming in flight . Then at home : power up without bumping throttle, pin all surfaces in place and the unhook each Clevis. Then zero all trims and mechanically adjust push rods to easily fit correctly into pinned in place surfaces. Works great. Next time I fly it may take a few laps for gyro to learn new settings but she won’t or should not need much trim now. 😊

LOL, well I try to tell people to put the main investment in this hobby into the transmitter and get the most transmitter can afford. The planes will come and go but the transmitter is your bread and butter. The nx 8, and 10 are about the best as far as I tell with a refurbished or good dx9 being a strong choice also. Anything bigger and your just going for the flashy buttons and bragging. As far as being people of size....well WE EARNED OUR GUTS!!!!!....lol

I will tell you exactly what happened. First, I used a 6s 3700 mAh batery on my 60 inches plane to make the basic set up of the moving surfaces, control throws, engine, etc., and everthing went perfectly. Then, for security reasons, (big prop on the nose), I decided to unplug this big battery and to use a 2s small lipo battery in order to work with the forward programming. I studied your video first because since several years I have not installed another AR 630 receiver in a plane. So, I turned my NX8 on, and then I inserted in the very first port my 2s battery ( with the proper conector of course). This first port is labeled bind/program. The receiver started with the blinking orange light. This was what happened. Since then, every time you turn on your tx and then conect the real 6S battery, the ar630 start with the blinking orange light. And keeps this condition. You are forced to go into the binding mode into the tx in order to get the system working. After the flight, when you remove your used battery and install a new, charged battery, the situation is the same. You turn on the NX8, then connect the new 6S battery and the receiver goes inmediatly into blinking light ( bind mode). You need to go into the biding mode in the tx, you press the binding, and the system work again, ready for another flight. Thank you for your help !! Mario

In forward programing at the first screen to you see other options at the end of the list. If so this receiver needs a factory reset. Purchase yourself a spektrum programing cable. And with this you can open this option up by updating and spektrum smart receiver that normally has forward programing.

@@FatGuyFliesRC I think that what we're missing here is that he is plugging something into the bind port so yes, the receiver goes into bind mode . He needs his battery power going into any port EXCEPT the bind port. Hint, just take the prop off and work with his 'normal' battery. ??

good job big guy !

Thank you!!

I actually prefer to keep AS3X as adjustable and assign it to a knob. That way you can tune AS3X for that particular plane inflight. Crank it till it oscillates then back down some. Most planes i use 1X AS3X but on one i had to use 4X AS3X because it needed more AS3X. Also i turn AS3X off on flight mode 3. Its more of a safety thing. Incase the gyro starts acting up (maybe receiver got loose) or sometimes i just want to fly without any gyro so just flip to Flight mode 3 and fly old school.

This is an older video I assign it to a knob now also to keep it in flight adjustable also.

BRILLIANT video once again. Really clear thanks for that. Just one thing……… I’ve bought the cirrus sr22t and the nx8, the cirrus is BNF with as3x and optional safe so is all this done already? Or do I still need to do what you just did in your video? Sorry I’m still learning all this stuff.

No the BNF is ready you will just need to use forward programming to tell the tX where you want SAFE select at.

Very good and clear video👌Could you please explain deeper the differences in between Flight mode 1,2 and 3? Following step by step your video, mode 1 is working perfectly but mode 2 and 3 gyro is not working at all🙄: I have an AR630. Where I should look at? Thanks for your help

For flight mode 2 and 3 make sure as3x is set to fixed and that you have run up the throttle to over 25% to activate it.
