Buzz What did you use for setting on the trutrak set ups? If you logged the settings this would save me time testing flight settings. Let me know if you have any info on this. Thanks Tom Hoffmann Smile

Tom,
Sorry to say, I do not have the settings written down. I can see what they are this afternoon if you think it will help. I started with the basic settings they recommended and only had to change the ones having to do with altitude hold (pitch sensitivity and servo torque I think). However, based on the different wing, it will probably be different for your airplane. I recently was up with Linda in her Lightning doing the initial Trutrak set up so the settings she used would probably be similar for your airplane. By the way, congratulations on your first flight.
Blue skies,
Buz

[quote] Tom,

I don't have my settings written down either; next time I'm at the airport, I will try to remember them and let you know.

[quote] Tom,

My Tru Trak Digiflight II VSGV is set as follows:

Roll Axis
Lateral Activity 2
Lateral Torque 12
Baud 9600
Bank Angle LO
Microactivity 0
GPSS Gain 16
Yaw Damper N
Mag Cal N

Pitch Axis
Pitch Axis ON
Vert Activity 2
Vert Torque 8
Min Airspeed 85
Max Airspeed 170
Static Lag 0
Microactivity 0
Half Step N

These settings seemed pretty comfortable when Buz and I set them; continued adjustments are probably in order. On my trip to SYI and back last weekend, the altitude hold seems to cause some minor longitudinal "rocking". I hope to get rid of that.

Congratulations on your first flight, Linda Mathias
