Detrum GY48V headklock gyro for 3D Helicoptersstar rating 5VinceNovember 22, 2011Excellent gyro - easy to set up. Suggest DS9257 servo with this gyro.
Detrum GY48V headklock gyro for 3D Helicoptersstar rating 5VinceNovember 20, 2011GOOD GYRO – Detrum GY48V I have used many gyros on my EXI 450 helicopter and finally found one that is cheap, easy to setup and WORKS. My favorite WAS HK401b from HobbyKing.com until this year. The older (2009-2010) HK401b gyro worked well was easy to setup and was cheap – my criteria. But the NEW (2011) version of the HK401b gyro does not work and you will note from my other posts that the internal electrical components have been changed (for the worse in my opinion). My new favorite is the Detrum GY48V gyro from HobbyPartz.com ($13). I set this gyro up in just a few minutes (removed a RCX400 that did not work) and went out to fly in 31 degree weather here in Minnesota. My Futaba 7C transmitter settings are head-hold A30% and standard mode N30%. These are the numbers I started with and works perfect – lucky huh! The tail servo is Goteck 9257 digital ( $15 clone of the famous Futaba 9257). I set the gyro to analog servo as it was buzzing when the gyro was set to digital servo mode. I hope this helps other flyers. Luck, Vince
Detrum GY48V headklock gyro for 3D Helicoptersstar rating 5KirkNovember 3, 2011Great gyro!! Just put on on my exi 450 kit. Solid. Will buy more when needed. I had more expensive gyros that did not work as welll as this one. Can't beat it for the price.
Detrum GY48V headklock gyro for 3D Helicoptersstar rating 5Philipp2October 28, 2011I ordered two of these to use on airplanes for aileron stabilization (wing leveler). Have not flown but on the bench they work as well as the Futaba. The trim does not change when turning on or off like some of the others. The gain is fully adjustable as well as the switching from AVCS (heading Hold) to Off to Rate control if plugged into a variable channel. If on a switched channel, it changes the gyro from AVCS to rate when switching. - Probably could be set to turn off also with a little programming. Great Gyro for the price. Why pay more?
Detrum GY48V headklock gyro for 3D Helicoptersstar rating 5GregSeptember 11, 2011Best Gyro you can buy for the price. I have one on an electric 500 and a Nitro 600. Both gyros are rock solid. I recommend this to anyone looking for a gyro for either Helis or Planes!
