PRECAUTIONS
Meaning of Special Markings
3D\VSHFLDODWWHQWLRQWRVDIHW\ZKHUHLQGLFDWHGE\WKHIROORZLQJPDUNV
DANGER - Procedures which may lead to dangerous conditions and
cause death/serious injury if not carried out properly.
WARNING - Procedures which may lead to a dangerous condition or
cause death or serious injury to the user if not carried out properly or proce-
dures where the probability of superficial injury or physical damage is high.
CAUTION - Procedures where the possibility of serious injury to the user
is small, but there is a danger of injury, or physical damage, if not carried out
properly.
: Prohibited : Mandatory
WARNING
Failure to follow these safety precautions may result in severe injury to
yourself and others.
• Read through the entire manual before operating this product.
USAGE PRECAUTION:
* When using FASSTest 12 CH mode, analog servo can not be used for 1-6 CH output for conven-
tional system.
* The FASSTest system is not compatible with the conventional FASST system.
CAUTION
Do not mount GPB-1 (Gyro Program Box) on the helicopter.
* It will be damaged by vibration.
11
Do not cut or bundle the receiver antenna wire.
Do not bend the coaxial cable. It causes damage.
To prevent damage to the antenna, please exercise caution. Do not
bend at the base of the antenna. Also, ensure that the unit is not sub-
jected to impact damage.
Keep the antenna as far away from the motor, ESC and other noise
sources as you possibly can.
ABOUT BATTERIES:
WARNING
Newer high-end servos and other radio equipment are capable of
placing large demands on the power systems in use today. When us-
12
ing a regulator you must ensure that the regulator is capable of sup-
plying the current demands of the equipment you have selected. In
addition to this make sure the wiring and switch you have selected are
capable of handling high current draws.
*The servo current draw can be up to 50% higher on a flybarless helicopter. Always
ensure your receiver battery is fully charged before each flight.
ABOUT CONNECTOR:
Insert the connector such as sensor, servo, connection cable, bat-
tery etc., surely.
*If it is not securely inserted all the way in, it may come off due to vibration during flight
and there is a danger of falling.
ABOUT WIRING:
Please secure the wiring so that it does not rub against the helicop-
ter frame or other such items that could cause wear. If it does so, we
suggest covering these ares with fuel tubing (or similar) to prevent
damage.
ON FLIGHT PRECAUTION:
Always exit programming mode before attempting to fly the model.
Gyro operating precautions: Gyro
13
Verify that the gyros are operating and compensating in the correct
direction before each flight. If the compensation direction is incorrect
on any axis the model will become uncontrollable after takeoff.
If you are switching between Normal Mode and AVCS Mode in flight,
please keep in mind that you must have the gyro re-learn the center
position after making a trim change within the transmitter. To memorize
the new center position simply flip the gain switch on the transmitter
three times between Normal Mode and AVCS Mode (Normal AVCS
Normal AVCS) within one second. The servo will center indicating
that the new center position has been memorized.
When operating the gyro in AVCS Mode, all compensation and revo-
lution mixing must be disabled and any tail rotor or swash offsets for
flight modes must be disabled.
Do not drop the CGY760R/CGY755 onto a hard surface or subject
the CGY760R/CGY755 sensor to a strong shock as this may damage
the sensor.
14
then full right, back to full left and then allow the stick to center within
one second; the same method applies for aileron and elevator servos.
WARNING
Never turn off the CGY760R/CGY755 while the GX (gyro) LED is
blinking green at high speed (about 5/sec).
*If the power is turned off while high-speed blinking, a data error will occur and all data
will be initialized. It is very dangerous to fly as it is.
Throttle fail safe function (transmitter setting): Use the fail safe func-
tion for the channel that turns the governor on and off to set the fail
safe position to the point at which the governor is turned off. With this
setting, when the system enters the fail safe state, the governor will be
turned off, and the receiver throttle signal (fail safe position preset) will
be output directly.
When using the condition hold function on the transmitter, always
set the throttle servo maximum operating point to less than the point
at which the governor is activated. If this is not done the governor
may activate while in condition hold.
While preparing for flight or starting the engine, always ensure the
throttle remains below the governor activation point and do not select
any flight modes that may activate the governor.
If you prefer to activate the governor while the model is still on the
ground, always ensure that you have at least -1 degrees of pitch in the
model before activating the governor. This negative pitch is neces-
sary to prevent an unexpected lift off as the governor activates and the
head speed increases to the desired RPM.
15
Be sure to set the autorotation condition to the OFF side with the
governor ON / OFF switch function.
16
MOUNTING / PART NAMES / CONNECTING
Mount on a model using the attached mounting pad and mount it at the center posi-
tion of model gyro mount so that it is exactly parallel to the roll and pitch axis of the

3. Vibrations will decrease the performance of all gyro systems. Even though the CGY
gyro sensor is the most vibration resistant gyro sensor available, eliminating vibra-
tions will always improve performance. The CGY gyro sensor performs best when
the sensor is mounted rigidly to the airframe. It is highly recommended to avoid us-
ing soft foam pads as this may allow the gyro to bounce around on the roll and pitch
axis, causing instabilities and possible loss of control during flight so that the roll and
pitch sensing axis are in alignment with the model. Any misalignments over 1/2 of a
degree will cause a loss in performance. Please take extra care in this step to en-
sure the optimum flight performance.

1. Connect the CGY760R and GPB-1 and set the same mode set in as the transmitter
linking the CGY760R communication mode on the "Receiver" screen. (See page 36)
2. Keep the transmitter and receiver close to each other and turn on the receiver with
the transmitter in the link mode.
3. After powering on the receiver, please allow for approximately two seconds for the
binding/linking to occur.
4. The LED indication on the receiver will change from the red blinking light to a solid
green. This indicates that the linking is successful. This usually occurs in approxi-
mately one second.
* Refer to the transmitters instruction manual for complete details on how to place
the transmitter into the linking mode.
* If there are many T-FHSS or FASSTest systems in use when attempting to link the
transmitter to the receiver, it might require more time to do so.
Additionally, if another modeler in close proximity is attempting to link their units
simultaneously, it could also cause difficulties as the receiver might inadvertently
link to the other transmitter. Always confirm that the receiver responds to the in-
put from the desired transmitter.
* If the System Type of the transmitter is changed, the receiver will need to be re-
linked to the transmitter. For example, if the transmitter is changed from T-FHSS
to FASSTest, it will be necessary to perform the linking procedure once again.
WARNING
Do not perform the linking procedure while the motor’s main wire con-
nected or the engine is operating as it may result in serious injury.
When the linking is complete, please cycle the receiver power
and ensure the receiver is properly linked to the transmitter.
Please power up your system in this order. Transmitter first, fol-
lowed by the receiver.
If the CGY760R was previously linked to another transmitter,
make sure that transmitter is not operating while linking the receiv-
er to the new transmitter.

Magnet Operating Side Check
Bring the magnet near the end of the sensor and check the operating side.
*This is the side at which the displayed value increases in the "Revolution sensor test-
ing" menu within the "Governor Basic Setting" section earlier in this manual. Install
the magnet with this side facing the sensor. Mark this side of the magnet with a felt tip
pen. Sensor

&RROLQJ)DQ0RGL¿FDWLRQ
1. Drill a hole in the fan at the magnet mounting position. Make the hole about 4.1 mm
in diameter and 1.5 to 1.7 mm deep.
2. Embed the magnet in this hole in the direction in which an output is obtained. Use
epoxy adhesive that cures in 30 minutes or longer. Do not use epoxies that contain
metal such as JB Weld.
Cement the magnet to the cool-
ing fan so that the magnet is
Magnet level with this side of the cooling
fan.
3. If the cooling fan is unbalanced and vibrates, etc., balance it by mounting the spare
magnet to the opposite side of the cooling fan in the opposite polarity (so that it does
not output a signal).
Sensor Mounting
The sensor mounting method depends on the model and engine.
1. Temporary the sensor to the sensor mount.
2. Drill a hole in the fan cover at the part corresponding to the sensor so that the dis-
tance between the sensor and magnet can be made 1 to 2 mm.
25
3. Tighten the sensor stay together with the engine mounting
flange. (Temporary assembly)
4. Select the mounting method so that the sensor does not touch
the frame, or other parts of the model. Temporarily mount the
sensor and select the magnet mounting position.
5. Install the sensor to the sensor stay using the accessory screws
and washers.
6. Tighten the sensor stay together with the engine using the en-
gine mount screw.
Sensor Adjustment
1. Adjust the sensor position to obtain a sensor output of at least 60% in the "Revolu-
tion sensor testing" menu within the "Governor Basic Setting".
Center of sensor
is offset. Sensor case
Sensor
Magnet
2.2 mm
1 - 2 mm
3.7 mm 3.7 mm
2. The center of the sensor is different from the center of the sensor case so be careful
when mounting the sensor.
If the display is less than 60% when the magnet is directly below the sensor, bring
the sensor closer to the magnet so that the 60% or more is displayed. The magnet
and sensor gap criteria is approximately 1 to 2 mm. If a sensor output is not obtained
even when the sensor is brought close to the magnet, the magnet and sensor center
positions may have changed.
3. Complete assembly of the sensor by securely tightening the screws that were tem-
porarily tightened.
4. Recheck the sensor output.

Throttle Servo Linkage Precautions
· To effectively use the governor, observe the following precautions when connecting
the servo linkage.
· Make the servo operating range as wide as possible. Make the throw of the transmit-
ter EPA (ATV) function and AFR function as close as possible to 100%.
· Fly with the governor turned OFF and adjust the needle so that the engine smoothly
reacts to movement of the transmitter stick.
· If there is a point at which the reaction of the engine is considerably different due to a
too rich or too lean mixture, the governor may not operate to its maximum potential.

(3) Srv. Limit: Limit setting
When the CGY is in the "Srv.Limit" parameter mode, the gyro will no
longer operate and the tail servo will always center when the tail rotor
stick is released. Always exit the setup functions before attempting to fly
the model. Before each flight, always ensure that the gyros are operat-
ing and compensating in the correct direction. The Servo Limit param-
eter within the CGY is used to set the mechanical limits for the tail rotor
servo. To obtain the best performance it is recommended to set the limit
in the CGY to 100% for both directions and then adjust the servo arm
length to set the mechanical endpoints. After that has been completed,
use the servo limit parameter to make small adjustments that could not
be made mechanically. Values between 90% and 110% are considered
optimal. Hold the cursor to "Srv.Limit" by pressing the [ /+] or [ /-] key.
Gradually move the rudder stick to the left or right by the maximum
amount the " " cursor moves. Enter the setting mode by pressing the
[Enter] key, increase or decrease the maximum throw using the [ /+] or
[ /-] key, and then press the [Enter] key to exit the setting mode. Set the
same way on the other side. Ensure that the pitch slider does not bind
at the maximum movement inputs.
WARNING
When using the CGY for the first time, or when making mechani-
cal changes involving throw, you must check and set the servo lim-
its again to prevent binding.

WARNING
Always level the swash plate using the cyclic stick before applying throttle
and spooling up the main rotor blades. During takeoff small corrections may be
necessary. If you make large corrections while the helicopter is on the ground, it
may tip over since the helicopter is firmly on the ground and the gyros are over-
compensating due to the lack of movement.
Some helicopters may have a tendency to resonate/shake during spool up.
Always leave the helicopter on the ground until this resonance or shaking goes
away. If this issue continues, it is recommended to try some rubber skid stops or
take off from a softer surface such as grass. Vibrations contribute to this ground
resonance. Verify that everything on your model is balanced correctly.
*When the CGY is used with an ESC or BEC and a power switch is not used,
there is a possibility of an intermittent connection when connecting the flight bat-
tery. This may cause the CGY initialization to fail. Always ensure that the gyro has
initialized properly by verifying that the gyros are compensating as the helicopter
is moved. It is recommended to use a power switch on the power supply line to
avoid this possibility.

TRANSMITTER ROTOR HEAD GYRO GAIN SET-UP
Transmitter Set-up for adjusting cyclic gains via the transmitter.
Using the Remote Gain Functions (roll, pitch and yaw)
1. Some Futaba transmitters contain auxiliary gain functions for aileron, elevator and
yaw. Please refer to your transmitter’s instruction manual. Assign the Gyro (RUD),
Gyro (Rotor Head replaces AIL/ELE) channels within the transmitter. Within the
CGY "S.BUS BASIC" menu Rotor Head Gyro Gain – In the SBUS menu assign-
ing "Rotor Head gain" to a channel will allow the Rotor head gain to be adjusted via
the transmitter. If you are using a 5 or 6CH transmitter, setting "Rotor Head gain" to
"INH" will then default the gain to "BaseGain" in the "FLT. TUNE" menu. Suggested
setting and default is CH9. Tail Rotor Gain "Gain RUD" – In the SBUS menu assign-
ing "Gain RUD" to a free transmitter channel will allow for the tail rotor gain to be
adjusted via the transmitter. Suggested setting and default is CH5.
2. The gyro function within your transmitter should list all three gain channels. Adjust-
ments can be made from within this function. The gyro function can usually be as-
signed to various switches or conditions to offer greater adjustability. Please refer to
your transmitter’s instruction manual for further details.
WARNING
Verify that the gyro compensates in the correct direction for all three axes
before flight. If the compensation direction is incorrect, the model will roll, flip,
or pirouette uncontrollably even before it leaves the ground.

(4) Yaw. Comp: Governor working mode
Yaw compensation allows the governor to more rapidly correct for
changes in power demands of the model resulting from yaw input. Set the
mode to match the gyro installation direction. Select from: CW/TOP, CW/
BOTM, CCW/TOP, CCW/BOTM by pressing the [ /+] or [ /-] key. Note: if
the user has selected the governor only mode, this parameter is inhibited.
Revolution fluctuation in the case of pirouettes
The governor detects the rpm via the revolution sensor mounted in the
engine section. During a pirouettes, the helicopter itself rotates, so that its
pirouettes speed is added (reduced) to the engine speed. Therefore, the
main rotor speed will fluctuate accordingly. Since the CGY has a gyro, it
can accurately measure the pirouette speed. The yaw rate correction is
thus determined by a combination of gyro function and governor function.

(5) DEADBAND
The dead band angle at stopping can be specified.
[Relationship between dead band set value and servo operation]
Small Value Setting Dead band angle is small and the servo is immediately oper-
ated by a small signal change.
Large Value Setting Dead band angle is large and the servo does not operate at
small signal changes.
Note: If the dead band angle is too small, the servo will operate continuously
and the current consumption will increase and the life of the servo will be
shortened.
(6) SPEED
Speeds can be matched by specifying the operating speed. The speed of
multiple servos can be matched without being affected by motor fluctua-
tions. This is effective for load torques below the maximum torque.
However, note that the maximum speed will not exceed what the servo is
capable of even if the servo's operating voltage is increased.

servo as a landing gear servo, select "Retractable". Also adjust the
servo travel to match the landing gear movement range. When the
servo type is OLP mode, the torque and time for OLP can be set on
SBUS SERVO screen 4/4. When the load is greater than this set-
ting torque and continues over this setting time, OLP works.
Setting: NORM / OLP / RETR
(9) SMOOTHER
This function changes smoothness of the servo operation relative
to operation signal changes. Normally use at Smooth setting. Es-
pecially, select the "OFF" mode when quick operation is necessary.
Setting: ON / OFF Initial setting: ON
(10) SOFTSTART
Restricts operation in the specified direction the instant the power is
turned on. By making this setting, only the first operation when the
power is turned on slowly moves the servo to the specified position.
100
(11) BOOST - ON/OFF
The minimum current applied to the internal motor when starting the servo
can be set. Since a small travel does not start the motor, it essentially
feels like the dead band was expanded. The motor can be immediately
started by adjusting the minimum current which can start the motor.
OFF : It is the boost ON at the time of low-speed operation.(In the case of usual)
ON : It is always the boost ON. (When quick operation is hope)
[Relationship between boost set value and servo operation]
Small Value Setting Motor reacts to a minute current and operation becomes
smooth.
Large Value Setting Initial response improves and output torque increases. How-
ever, if the torque is too large, operation will become rough.
(12) DAMPER
The characteristic when the servo is stopped can be set.
When smaller than the standard value, the characteristic becomes an over-
shoot characteristic. If the value is larger than the standard value, the brake is
applied before the stop position.
Especially, when a large load is applied, overshoot, etc. are suppressed by in-
ertia and hunting may occur, depending on the conditions. If hunting (phenom-
ena which cause the servo to oscillate) occurs even though the Dead Band,
Stretcher, Boost and other parameters are suitable, adjust this parameter to a
value larger than the initial value.
[Relationship between damper set value and servo operation]
Small Value Setting When you want to overshoot. Set so that hunting does not
occur.
Large Value Setting When you want to operate so that braking is not applied. How-
ever, it will feel like the servo response has worsened.
Note: If used in the hunting state, not only will the current consumption in-
crease, but the life of the servo will also be shortened.
101
From 3/4
(14) BUZZER
When a servo is powered up without a transmitter signal, a buzzer sounds.
When transmitter signal is lost, a buzzer sounds until the servo regains the
signal. This is not unusual.
The transmitter has been turned OFF ahead of a servo power supply The
buzzer sound of about 1.25 Hz continues sounding as servo power supply end
failure alarm.
Do not insert or remove the servo connector while the receiver power is ON.
A buzzer may sound by incorrect recognition.
Note: Buzzer sound is generated by vibrating the motor of a servo. Since cur-
rent is consumed and a servo generates heat, please do not operate the number
more than needed or do not continue sounding a buzzer for a long time.
102
The following can be displayed and set only when the type setting is "OLP".
(15) Trq
This is the torque for working OLP.
Setting: 10% - 100% Initial setting: 100%
100% is the maximum torque of the servo which you are setting.
(16) TIME
This is the time for working OLP. Set the time when OLP (Over
Protection) functions. Displayed only when the type is OLP setting.
Setting: 0.2, 0.5, 1, 2, 3 sec, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 15, 20, 25, 30 sec
Initial setting: 5 sec
Note: If the setting of OLP torque and time is decreased, it is easier to
work OLP. Then, please be careful not to work OLP at usual operation.
