jay bee Posted May 28, 2021 Share Posted May 28, 2021 My Freestyler 4 was copied on a Jeti transmitter to like for like for another FS4 and now all the throws/programming are opposite bar the elevator servos. The original FS4 has MKS servos and the new FS4 has Kingmax servos(wing/elevator). Is this an original program setting error ie servos plugged in wrong on the receiver ish or an internal servo programming. No big deal as l have changed the wing throws and reversed plus for minus etc. Any ideas what the reverse change is? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
f3fman Posted May 28, 2021 Share Posted May 28, 2021 There is no standard for servo rotation direction as far as I know, so it will be down to the different servos 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jay bee Posted May 28, 2021 Author Share Posted May 28, 2021 Thanks Phil,as John said,no standard.Must admit l did have a lot of fun redialing things and trying to remember how it was done in the first place:) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
satinet Posted May 29, 2021 Share Posted May 29, 2021 Might have been quicker to reverse the servos in the servo menu 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wookman Posted May 29, 2021 Share Posted May 29, 2021 Make sure they go the right way in all flight phase. There are experienced flyers out there who have fallen foul of that one! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

satinet Posted May 29, 2021 Share Posted May 29, 2021 I can't see the logic of changing the pluses to minuses when each servo can just be (un)reversed. I don't think I've ever had a radio that doesn't have this feature and certainly not a Jeti £££. As stated above if it's a full f3f setup with flight modes it's likely that some or all of the aileron and flap settings are different in each flight mode including the camber and reflex etc. In my view you are better off having it so that plus and minus are always either up it down if possible. E.g minus is up. Makes doing setting changes easier. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wookman Posted May 29, 2021 Share Posted May 29, 2021 Back when servo reversing involved resoldering feedback pots and motors! 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
