T-Rex - Install receiver/gyro and dressing up the wires
After I was done soldering my charger and batteries, I had time to add wire loom to the wires and plug things into the receiver, the receiver is mounted inside the frame. I also connected the gyro, but I need to figure out how to best manage the wires. The gyro attaches to an aftermarket mount the fits beneath the boom. If you mount the gyro above the boom like the manual states you run the risk of destroying your gyro in a crash as the flybar or blades can come in contact woth it. As you can see from the pictures there is a lot of extra wire on the gyro that I will have to loom and manage, some people shorten the servo lead but I am going to leave the extra wire on it in the event that I want to use it on anothe Heli in the future. I am eagerly awaiting my transmitter so that I can trim the servos and get the head set up and leveled.
