===Setup menu point J - Adjust left or right or both directions? ===
 +
You only have to adjust one direction, whether it's left or right, it doesn't matter. Important is to exactly adjust 6° when the blades are aligned on the aileron axis as this teaches the unit the servo throw. Push the aileron stick to adjust the pitch and when the blade pitch is 6° simply push the button briefly and that's it.

===Setup menu point J - I don't get blue color at 6 degrees===
 +
When getting the 6° too early this shows that you may not use full servo resolution (not using the full throw). This can be solved by using longer blade grip linkage arms, reducing the swashplate inner diameter (shorter linkage balls) or larger swahplate outer diameter (longer linkage balls). Or simply by screwing the linkage balls on the servo horns further in (but this will reduce both cyclic and collective - the cyclic/collective ratio will not change).

Anyhow the color is not a fixed value that is a must to reach. If you get blue you have something similar to 80% usable servo throw. The further you can go the higher the value will be. So everything from blue upwards will give a good resolution and you won't feel any disadvantages. If using good, precise high class servos, strong and with fast speed you even can fly with only red LED without any noticeable difference. Also rotorblades (flybarless blades or not) can make a difference.

On a 250 or 450 size heli you should try to get "dark" blue exactly at 6.0° as here servos normaly at not so precise.

You only have to adjust one direction whether left or right, it doesn't matter. Important is to exactly adjust 6° as this teaches the unit the servo throw. And as said the color is of minor importance but you should try to get to blue as close as possible to achieve best performance.

===My servos are not on the website's servo list. Can I use them anyway?===
 +
The servo list on the website only is a collection of some servos' data. It does not say that if a servo is not on the list that you must not use it. If a servo is not on the list we simply did not test it ourselves or we could not find any data about it. Also we can't know any servo on the market. In fact Microbeast is compatible to nearly any servo on the market. Anyhow when choosing a servo for your flybarless helicopter you should note this:
