The points C to K of PARAMETER MENU offer a variety of settings which you may use to further improve the system performance and which allow you to adjust the flight characteristics of the helicopter to suit your personal preferences. Normally for the first flight you don‘t need to make any adjustments here.<br />

== Speed flight stability (Point C)==

== Speed flight stability (Point C)== <!--T:7-->

When in fast forward flight apply jerky collective pitch inputs to test this parameter. The helicopter should mainly remain in its horizontal flight path during climbing and descending. If the nose of the helicopter is pitching up and down heavily like a swimming dolphin, increase the setting to compensate for this effect. But if the value is too high, the helicopter might feel sluggish and lazy. So it's best to try finding the lowest suitable setting. Note that the Cyclic Gain (usually set by Dial 1) must be set as high as possible as well. Otherwise the pitching up just may be the result of too low reaction of the gyro system in general.<br />

== Rudder rate consistency (Point D) == <!--T:8-->

At PARAMETER MENU point D the rudder rate consistency can be adjusted. This parameter comes into play when the tail gyro is operated in HeadingLock mode. It determines how hard the tail gyro tries to maintain a given rotation rate from the transmitter. If the value is set too low, pirouettes will be inconsistent during fast forward flight or in crosswind conditions and the helicopter will slowly drift on the vertical axis when in stationary hovering flight with crosswinds. If on the other hand the setting is too high, the tail gyro will respond delayed to fast directional changes and the rudder stick control feels very inprecise. Additionally the tail might make a slow bounce after stopping from a rotational movement and commute gently while hovering or flying around. So only adjust this parameter as high as necessary.<br />
