Need help!! I would like to control the EDF speed using the gyros to balance pitch and roll. My project is a home made 3 motors heli like a triangle. Here are the info: Motor: EDF 90mm 1750kv (3x) ESC: Turnigy A65 (3x) Batteries: 6s lipo pack Rx: Futaba 6S skysport Please help to select the right gyros for the listed system. Should I need 3 or just 1? Thank you!

I think you need a multirotor flight controller board. I believe they even have gyros built into them because all the mixing involved.

Can anyone explain why there are 2 gyros here at HK looking exactly the same and both having "Applicable R/C systems: Futaba, JR, Hi-Tec, Sanwa/Airtronics Multiplex, GWS" in their descriptions - BUT - one is called "GWS PG-02 Piezo Gyro/JR", while another one "~/Futaba". They are also priced differently. The original manufacturer's manual makes no difference at all and just reads "Applicable R/C systems: Futaba, JR, Hi-Tec, Sanwa/Airtronics Multiplex, GWS". WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE then?

the 23dollar one is a single rate, this one is a dual rate. this means, that, depending on your transmitter, u can pre-program two different rates of sensibility. very usefull if u want too be able too switch between lazy flight and acro flight, while flying.

test it. we never did :-D hear story from someone who used it to switch edf jet between lazy and acro flight.. but if it is possible with this one is a trial and error situation.

5 thumbs up!

These gyros are better than TG380. Neutral point can be adjusted via the neutral switch. Two gain settings can be chosen via transimitter. But, I noticed one gyro has limited servo travel movements even after I set the gain to maximum
