Hi,

What is the best way to sharpen up the rudder response, I feel that yaw movement tends to be a bit sluggish. I have a GY401. Would this be a gyro adjustment, mechanical, or radio set-up change?

Regards
James

On the Tx, Use a larger EPA on both sides of the tail servo.

James,
To get the full tail feel, your going to have to put offset in your servo arm, another words, you can't run a 90 deg arm setup with the 401 because you will end up having one end with not enough throw..

Offset your arm so that you can run the highest gain (limit), and adjust the rod so as to go to each maximum mechanical throw on the bell crank.

This makes the tail a much better feel...if your yaw rate is to slow, then go to your rudder ATV, and raise both numbers to the highest value to speed it up..
