I'm very excited to try the Geolink with 2.5.0 bought one of the first releases and just downloaded the new firmware. I have successfully flown it doing Altitude Limit(Hard deck) and somewhat successful on Position hold. I'm trying to set up Return To Home now.

Couple questions:

Trying to set New Home Position with transmitter "F" switch. (3 way switch) When I put switch in ON 2 for 2 seconds,
blue led doesn't go off,(Channel bars do show +100 and -100 as noted in instructions) but the swash goes to positive collective, then returns to previous position. I believe my signal is strong as it's locking onto 12 sats, and I'm engaging On 2 with heli on the ground, not flying. Suggestions?

When engaging Position Hold I get some back cyclic (Instead of hovering in place) I did set heli level to ground with an actual level when doing Alignment, then did Set as Zero before Calibration. The heli is a TRex 700 with landing gear lower in front, causing heli to not be parallel to the ground. Suggestions?

I think that the Geolink is a great project, and will be very successful!

Thanks for any suggestions and help!

Tom :D

The LED that manual mentions is the Status LED of the Spirit unit. So all is OK - the new position should be saved in 2 seconds.

As described in the manual, it should be enough to decrease Horizontal Correction Gain. You can try value of 70% and check the result.

Thank you.
