Putting mine in the center between the two sticks I didn't need any extra wire. Tested mine and it also worked great.
I haven't forgotten the post - I am waiting for the temperature outside to get above freezing to do some flight tests. It looks good in the RC Assistant.dptcalvin said:Also interested in an update, Steve! Even with more stick time, I can't get a slow, steady, smooth pan. And I'm too much of a wuss and noob to DIY. I can plug and play with no problems, though.
Mako79 said:Does any of yours have bias? When the yaw slow is enabled, I have one side that is -34. Its no big fuss, except it yaws faster in one direction than the other. However, when I disable slow yaw, the readings are all normal and balanced. I tried changing resistors and I believe it could be the switch.
I also place mine in the middle in a vertical position. So it makes my brain say "S1, S2 and Yaw = up position to start motors".
And also just a note for any who get caught in a phantom spin because of a faulty switch or bad soldering, it places the phantom in a permanent spin. And this makes it impossible to fly. You have 2 options.
1. Turn off controller and force RTH and hope you have a home position locked.
2. Flick on CL or HL and manoeuvre over grass lower the phantom and do control crash. It may be spinning but with CL/HL the direction of the phantoms nose is ignored.

Part of my delay is deciding on through-hole connectors or surface mount. SMT would be cheaper if I was to order 50 or more (I haven't ever tried doing surface mount soldering), but for smaller quantities, using through-hole connectors and soldering them to the board myself before shipping would be cheaper. I am inclined to go with surface mount because it would be faster to test and deliver.
Also, which would be more useful. A variable yaw rate or a simple switch between slow and normal, or slow-medium-normal? If it is the latter then the kit could be released this spring.
