So Tom in this video needs a little schooling himself when it comes to adjusting the left/right stick spring tension on either gimbal for the NX series. It is the small screw on the inner part of the gimbal itself. If Tom would have done his homework before making this video he would have known that the left/right spring tension is already set as soft as it can be from the factory. That is because that little internal block that slides up and down when you turn the screw in and out, has a capture screw that prevents it from sliding down any further when you turn the screw counter clockwise. If you can stop the video at 16:24 you can see that screw, but tom flips that gimbal around in his fingers so fast that it's a challenge to stop the video just right. When Tom turns the left/right spring tension screw counter clock wise, as if he is making the left/right spring tension softer, it simply backs out and then prevents the gimbal from properly moving up and down correctly. That's because the tensioning block can't move down any further because of the capture screw that prevents it from doing so. You can soften the up/down spring tension because that tension block doesn't have a capture screw and so that block can move both up and down.

Thank you, very helpful. One small suggestion, could you add a chapter minute reference in the description. For example I wanted to learn about throttle ratcheting. It starts at 9:30. Listing the chapters by minute would make this reference even better. Cheers.

Originally, (20 years ago), the ratchet throttle was the only difference between a plane tx & a heli tx. Heli's, u didn't want a ratcheting throttle. (Cause, occasionally, u would need the space in between two ratchet spots). I actually had that issue, ONCE! Awesome video again sir!

You cannot adjust the tensions to anywhere near as soft as the DX series without changing the springs
@Finalmile_FPV2 жыл бұрын
Running into this issue now, coming from radios with softer springs the NX is way to stiff for me. You don’t happen to know where to source a softer gimbal spring so you? Backed out to the point of the set screw contacting the face plate it’s still ridiculously stiff
@calvinearl46762 жыл бұрын
Yep, same issue for me. The sticks on this thing are ridiculously stiff, even with adjustment backed off all the way. Sure would like some softer springs.

Be careful when adjusting the screws,because there is no stop on them,they will unscrew and fall out,had this happen to me, and it’s a pain in the ass to get the screw back in,so be careful.

It's brand new. Is there anything to do ? Or system return it ? Have a great Summer Ya'll

hi! do you know if there's any way to inhibit a switch, in my case the gear switch, until another condition is met, for example, throttle cut is turned off? i really want to build in a safety system like this to prevent accidental gear retraction on the ground but not sure if it's possible...

yes you can. Simply have it so both gimbals spring to center with the appropriate screw. At that point it really does not matter what mode you set IF you are only going to use it for surface vehicles. Hope that helps!

Hi only problem I have is when I switch to mode 1 the switches under the covers. When I switch them over like you say the throttle only goes down to 13 and up to 87. If I don't switch those switches over then the throttle goes down to 1 and up to 99.

When you change stick configurations in anyway, you must recalibrate the sticks. Perform that step it it will fix that problem. Hope that helps!
