How to setup helicopter configuration on minipix flight controller?

[Shamurov (Mehmet)]

Hi everyone,

I’m looking to set up a helicopter configuration on the MiniPix flight controller. My helicopter has a 2-servo swashplate and a BLDC motor for the tail rotor. I’ve read through some of the documentation, but I’m not sure about the specific settings required for this configuration.

Could anyone guide me on how to configure the MiniPix for a helicopter with these characteristics? Specifically, I need help with:

1. Setting up the 2-servo swashplate.
2. Configuring the BLDC motor on the tail.

Any advice or links to relevant documentation would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks in advance!

Hello Shamurov!

I don’t have any experience setting up a non-CCPM helicopter, but this older discussion goes into some details…

Setup of direct drive tail rotors can be found here:

Hope this helps!

Hi, so is this a fixed pitch heli? What swashplate arrangement do you have (standard 90° design?)

Hi,

Yes, its fixed pitch heli.
About swashplate arrangement I guess its either 90 or 120 degree with 2 servos
