The Gyro and the Receiver




The E4D RWD Project

After reading more forums, apparently gyros are very normal for RWD and NO this is not greek food :p

I'm still learning here bit by bit. So I looked up the cheapest gyros I can get in the rc stores here and they were trying to sell that gyro for MYR 80. So I went down a different route and got a receiver with gyro.

Beat that, get upgraded for both for the price of one. I got the Radiolink RC4G with Gyro. I think they have 2 versions out there. So be careful if you get one.

I installed the gyro on the car, for a whole week I was cursing the gyro. KNS I buy this gyro but car still like same only. No difference also. wasted my money. Next time buy cheap shit.

Note to Self: read the manual... paiseh

The gyro is set in one direction. However most of the car setup with the receiver I have is reversed. that includes the gyro. So change the direction of the gyro and walla .. like magic man.

Generally the E4D has shitty steering angle. Even with the gyro, it does not help. The car tends to be very tail happy which the gyro did not really solve.

Settings :

Throttle EPA : 30 - 40% depending on tire and surface
Gyro : Currently at 83%
Steering Speed 85% (Gyro turn faster, u just make correction to angle)
Throttle Exp Rate : -74 (low throttle at minimum throttle, i got heavy fingers)
