INSTALLATION
.Before using the double-sided foam, be sure to clean the bottom of the gyro and the fuselage where the gyro will be attached.
.Install the gyro as shown. Please note that the gyro must be erected as the sensing direction is different from others.

Connect to receiver sensitivity switching channel
SERVO SELECTION
TG-6000 is suitable for analog and digital rudder servo.
For analog servo, set the right switch to the AS position that means Analog Servo. For digital servo, set the switch to the DS position.
FUNCTION
AS/DS switch
TG-6000 is compatible with analog servo as well as digital servo. The AS means Analog Servo while the DS means Digital Servo. Be sure to set the switch at AS position when using an analog servo, or the servo will be easily destroyed.
Gyro operating direction
Switch the gyro operating direction. This setting depends mostly on the helicopter, servo, and the installation position of the gyro itself. Wrong setting will result in a dangerous situation.
End point adjustment dial
Adjusting the rudder servo traveling to the limit of mechanism and make sure that the servo traveling range is no greater than the linkage.
Delay adjustment
With high speed servo such as C0915, it is recommended to set the delay to “0” position. For slower servo, hunting occurs at pirouette stop. Increase the delay value until the hunting disappears. With too much delay value, the tail will easily drift and hard to control.
