'''Dial 1: Cyclic gain'''<br />
Line 53: Line 54:  
If the direct cyclic feed forward is too low, the helicopter will feel softer, slower and less direct. The optimal point depends of many factors like blades, servos, head speed, size and mass of the helicopter. Ideally you can increase the feed forward just as high as possible without any side effects happening. So you get a quite natural stick feeling and on the other hand the control loop is supported as good as possible. At delivery the dial is in the middle which should be a good starting point for most helicopters. Before adjusting the cyclic feed forward you should try to find the optimal maximum cyclic gain first (dial 1). Then adjust the cyclic feed forward and after that, you may have to adjust the cyclic gain once again, as both parameters interact to each other.<br />

{{QUOTE|The cyclic feed forward does not affect the maximum rate of rotation! If the helicopter turns too slow, you should check the settings of the swashplate limiter in Setup menu point '''L''', change the control behavior at Parameter menu point '''B''' or increase the servo travels or “Dual Rate“ setup of your transmitter.<br />

{{QUOTE|The cyclic feed forward does not affect the maximum rate of rotation! If the helicopter turns too slow, you should check the settings of the swashplate limiter in [[Manuals:MB_Plus:Setupmenu_L|Setup menu point '''L''']], change the control behavior at [[Manuals:MB_Plus:Parametermenu_B|Parameter menu point '''B''']] or increase the servo travels or “Dual Rate“ setup of your transmitter.<br />

Also to get a quicker and more aggressive response, increase the control behavior at Parameter menu point '''B''' (reducing expo and increasing the maximum rotation rate) and increase the cyclic response at Parameter menu point '''G'''. It is not recommended to increase the feed forward in this case, although it may produce a quicker servo movement and more direct stick feel at first glance. As described above this value is part of the control loop and you will get side effects as the control loop will not perform optimally, if you do not adjust this part as intended.}}<br />
