Attention, important!
If you operate the helicopter in the AVCS mode, it will save the direction in which the model is currently
pointing after connection of the rechargeable battery. If you carry the model to the starting point then and
turn it into another direction around its vertical axis, the gyro will independently turn the helicopter back into
the original direction right after taking off, just as it was aligned when connecting the rechargeable battery.

alignment of the tail rotor.
e) Checking the Gyro Sensitivity in Flight
If you have no experience with model helicopters yet, you should let an experienced model pilot make this setting.

model helicopter. Then increase the gyro sensitivity in small steps until the tail of the helicopter starts oscillating up
(quickly moves back and forth). If you reduce the gyro sensitivity a little until the pendulum effect disappears now,
you have set the best gyro sensitivity.
