Flybarless Rotor Head Systems > Trex 500; Skookum 360 mounting advice?

I’ve decided to build my Trex 500 flybarless using the Skookum 360. I need some advice about mounting in the heli. My first thoughts were to mount it on top of the tail drive Gbox (where you would normally put the gyro) and to mount the gyro on the bottom frame under the receiver tray.

I’m using a Spektrum 7 ch receiver and a 401 gyro.

If anyone has done this before it would be great

if you could post some pictures, especially if you have a better idea about mounting the Skookum.

Cheers L

Jody, thanks for your reply,

I've mounted mine in the same place.
I'm having great difficulty getting it fly, first time out it just rolled over whilst still on the ground,

second time I punched it up into the air and was not able to correct/control it, it seemed a bit like the SK360 was over correcting...I could be wrong though!

I've posted a new thread asking if there's anyone who has the same setup as me, to send me a copy of their data file.
