I ordered and received my 433mhz telemetry kit, but there is no cable to connect the air unit to the apm 2.5.
I thought this would be included in the bundled package. Apparently there is a connector for the

Read more…Hey guys,
I am having difficulty in getting my SK450 Dead Cat to take off. Even at maximum throttle, it does not lift off. I am running AC 2.9.1
According to xCopter Calc, it should hover at around 65% throttle.
My Setup:
1) I have MP 1.2.35 and can't find where to assign CH7 to Auto-trim. Has it changed to "Save Trim"?
2) Does any one have a list of Flight Modes for Heli's. I have found them for Planes and Quads
3) What is 'Toy" Flight Mode?
Thanks, Brian
