ZYX-S 3-Axis Flybarless System w/USB Program Adapter

ZYX-S 3-Axis Flybarless System w/USB Program Adapter
ZYX-S 3-Axis Flybarless System w/USB Program Adapter


The ZYX-S high performance multi-function 3-axis gyro system is the lightest flybarless system in the world. It is compatible with all 200-700 nitro or electric power helicopters and support 90, 120, 135, and 140 degree CCPM swashplate systems. Furthermore, it is compatible with all types of servos; supports both digital and analog 1520us, 960us and 760us servos. The setup process is quite easy, takes only about ten minutes. This unit also supports firmware updates.

The new ZYX-S version now supports S.BUS and DSM2/DSMJ satellite receiver functionality! This means not only can you use this with your S.BUS radio system, but you can also eliminate the need for using a separate receiver by simply connecting a DSM2/DSMJ satellite directly to the ZYX-S!

ZYX-S 3-axis gyro system provides two different helicopter flight modes - F3C and 3D, which can satisfy pilots from beginners to advanced. It also now supports 4 additional aircraft configurations as well: Quadcopter +, quadcopter X, standard fixed wing and delta fixed wing. This makes the ZYX-S a very versatile stabilization system suitable for virtually all types of aircraft.

ZYX-S 3-axis gyro system has many adjustable options; pilots can adjust the parameter of swashplate and tail servo response, which allows the user to fine tune the handling characteristics of the helicopter. This high performance 3-axis gyro system uses MEMS gyro sensors which allow the pilot to control the flying status of helicopter precisely. Built-in pirouette optimization function; stabilizes the helicopter while pirouetting, making the advanced maneuvers much more precise.

*Note: We have tested this unit on our HK450PRO and are very impressed with the performance. The ZYX-S flybarless system is an unbelievable value at a fraction of the cost of other systems currently on the market. Check out the video below of us testing this unit on the HK450PRO flybarless.

Does anybody know how many satellite receivers this supports, is it just a single output or is there two?

does anyone has experience with this fbl system in a blade helicopter?
 dhruvafreak 535 points
Will work fine. I dont use it on blade but on my 450s its superb
 WTWUK 1411 points
If the blade has a flybarless head, no problem. If it gas a flybar, you will have problems as they will fight each other.
 Florian 8 points
that's clear :), but would be interessting to see a flybar Heli with a FBL System.... *just a joke*

Used ZYX for a few months at the beginning of my heli jurney and: it's a good system for its price, but it's difficult to tune for an ambitious pilot who wants to practice some 3d. For a beginner it should be fine, easy setup using pc soft, flights well after setting up some basic parameters. But when you try to make a 3d... *) I spend many hours in the air setting this thing up to flight 3d. Well... I finally did it, but it's really hard to do. Also look out for the vibration, ZYX doesn't like them :) So be prepared to put it on a quite/very soft mounting pads (start with one, and if tail wags slowly and inconsistently, put it on two pads, separated with an alu plate). I recommend (as for 450 heli) to mount ZYX on the back/top shelf, cause inside the frame it vibrates more and it is imposible to make the tail stand still on hover :) If you have a small amount of money and don't want to flight 3d (or have a lot of time for setup), it should do fine. Also the bluetooth dongle is a great thing! A big for that!
 WTWUK 1411 points
What was the difficulty with setting up for 3D? What symptoms were you experiencing?
 Przemyslaw 10 points
Generally the PIDs :) At the beginning it was just magic :) But now I know how to use them. After some time I finally set it up almost as I wanted. Almost, cause I've never figured out how to get rid of tail drifting :( Now I suppose it came from vibrations, bu we will never know, cause I switched to BeastX. After all it is a good gyro, just needs a little time and knowledge to show it's values, and for that price this is the best choice for now.

HI WTWUK,I come from your forum and after many many clicks I not found how the sys. work!!I'm 63 years I'm not be able to come back soon!!excuse me.
 WTWUK 1411 points
I think I found you on the forum and have sent a message to you.
FRANC0IS  18 points - 5/21/2013
 
Hobbyking why is the cable on this so short? When you move the heli to check correct gyro or piro settings it is difficult to move around without pulling on the USB
 WTWUK 1411 points
Use a USB extension cable. Easy fix.
 FRANC0IS 18 points
Yes but they know you have to move the model around to check those things they should give you more than 8inches to start with
 WTWUK 1411 points
Do bear in mind that several other suppliers of this do not even supply the USB adaptor ... It is an optional item. It is also the manufacturer of the item - Tarot - that make it that length. HobbyKing get what is supplied.

HI WTWUK,my last post is disapear,it's the end of your help ?thanks.

Hi rebelier - go on the HK forum and PM me and can help better there. Same username. WTWUK.

I'm at a loss and if anyone can provide feedback it would be greatly appreciated... finally got the zyx and HK-t6a, i have found that none of the servos are responding and the servo movements are not matching no matter how i connect them. does anyone have the correct setup from the zyx to receiver... i've tested the servos without the gyro, they are working, i've reset the settings on the zyx and radio and still not getting the movement of the radio to match the software setup... I can provide pictures of setup if needed. CoachT
 Measuredpath 23 points
I am in the same boat as you. I have taken it off until I can sort out the unit.
 WTWUK 1411 points
Pop on to the HK Forums and post the question there - or PM me on there - same user name. Send photos if you wish and this can be sorted out.
 FRANC0IS 18 points
The first page on the settings section has transmitter/protocol/mode option. Make sure that is correct or you might(for example) have it set to mode one when your transmitter is mode 2. All the channels will seem scrambled

Zeer goed spul, maar vraagt wat bijstellingen tot men tevreden is, doch ik heb liever een heli met flybar.

has anyone had any luck using this with a 4-blade HK FBL head .. I've trashed a lot of blades and still can't control a hover .. I'm using a JR9303 Tx .. the heli is a HK 450 clone, it flies great with the paddle head and this stabilizer any suggestions are appreciated, thanks
 WTWUK 1411 points
Have you 'phased' the blades correctly? That is critical with multi-blade setups.
BEST ANSWER CREDIT AWARDED
 wperrin 139 points
i think that is the question* how to phase correctly with JR9303 TX options and ZYX stabilizer. .. a few more attempts, after that it may end up on ebay :)
 WTWUK 1411 points
Best bet is to log on to the HK forums and PM me - same username and I can get you hovering. Answers are too long winded to put here. Rest assured, it will be fine.
rebelier  1 points - 5/17/2013
 
Hi wtwuk,thanks for yours threads.I bought 2 zyx-s bus connector cable it is ok tgy rx?I have install zyx-s with all cables and in the setup menu I see all my controls but no throtle,pitch move ok.do you have a solution?thanks.
 WTWUK 1411 points
That is normal. Throttle is not passed to zyx for heli.
rebelier  1 points - 5/17/2013
 
HI,wtwuk is the specialist 6 but I never said you my gyros are zyx-s.it's the same thing for?
 WTWUK 1411 points
You asked if S.Bus cable for ZYX gyro could be connected to your Turnigy RX 9X8C V2. It cannot be connected to it. No S.Bus cable except the Futaba PWM to S.Bus converter can. So I am confused now about exactly what you are trying to do. I think the language barrier may be the problem?
rebelier  1 points - 5/16/2013
 
HI,one hk product specialist said me you connect your zyx in any channel of your rx-9x8cv2!I never find any wiring diagram on web for s.bus cable.I would'nt smoke my zyx or rx.thanks.
 WTWUK 1411 points
Which Specialist was that? absolutely wrong. You need to connect the cables that come with the ZYX into your receiver in the correct places - not one single S.Bus cable.
rebelier  1 points - 5/16/2013
 
HI,can you tell me exactly where to connect zyx-s s.bus cable id:297000004 in between zyx gyro and tgy rx-9x8cv2?Thank you
 WTWUK 1411 points
Once again - there is NO SBUS port on your receiver!!! You cannot connect Sbus cable to it at all.

HI,can you tell me exactly where to connect zyx-s s.bus cable id:297000004 in between zyx gyro and tgy rx-9x8cv2?Thank you
 WTWUK 1411 points
Nowhere. The Turnigy receiver is not S.Bus capable.

Thanks WTWUK for your comment.
Arthur  13 points - 5/14/2013
 
Do I really need a ZYX Multifunctional Gyro Programmer or I can program it through USB Cable?
 WTWUK 1411 points
you can program via the USB fully - the programmer is handy for field adjustments though as it saved carting a laptop around.
Arthur  13 points - 5/14/2013
 
Guys, Is this gyro easy to setup?
 WTWUK 1411 points
Once you get the hang of it, like anything, it is easy. initially though you may find it confusing, but there is plenty of help available.
Crusty One  44 points - 5/12/2013
 
Before I buy this one two questions please, I have the non -s model and a 9Xv2 transmitter, I am having an amazing amount of trouble getting the servos to work as the software, I can have the servos working as they should with transmitter but elevator opposite to software, each time I try I find I have to choose a new model, and reset XYZ, so do you think my unit is faulty, if so I will buy the later model as above or maybe a different brand, HK is stocking more FBL units which is great, what please are your thoughts
 WTWUK 1411 points
You need to ensure you have no mixing in your TX. Then all settings are done via the ZXY software. Reverse the swash channel for your elevator and you should be fine. It is a matter of perseverence - the ZXY is not faulty.
BEST ANSWER CREDIT AWARDED
 WTWUK 1411 points
ZYX even ... Very late! Setup mechanically as good as you can - zero trim or subtrim on the TX. One more thing to make sure is the Piro Optimisation in the last step - that has to be 100% correct or your heli will go crazy! Setting it up seems daunting at first, but you will get it in the end.
 Crusty One 44 points
WTWUK tks again, I have no mixing in TX, only throtle reverse, Is it correct I change elevator in TX rather than ZXY. I need to move along the top bar of ZXY to (servo reverse)to do this then come back to setup (monitor)first page and carry on setting end points and trim, I know i am being a bit pedantic but ZXY for some reason (probably me) is being rather inconsistant (I think it forgot its Meds).. cheers
 WTWUK 1411 points
You need to reverse ELE in TX if movement via sticks is incorrect. Reverse in ZYX if it causes incorrect movements. It is good to be pedantic with setting up. Once done, then take meds and alcohol! Heh heh!
 Crusty One 44 points
OK that makes sense, Get TX to Servo's right and then change (if need) ZYX so software is correct.. then wine in copious amounts, I like the alcohol part Thanks you can go to bed now!

4 ball bearings - 19gr. - 2.99$ So HK FREE shipping costs 3$. Nice?
 WTWUK 1411 points
That is the lowest price shipping weight band for airmail - up to 100grams. Cheap enough. The trick is to get as much as you can up to the relevant weight limit. Works out very cheap that way.
 WTWUK 1411 points
What are the part numbers - I will add them to a cart and add the ZXY and check on my account.
 Serpent44 46 points
Bearing set: 450pro0407025 In fact it`s not a big problem with additional 3$ costs, when you pay 60-70 bucks, but image problem for HK. If FREE SHIPPING declared, it must be FREE anyway!
 WTWUK 1411 points
Just loaded qty x 1 450pro0407025 and then added the ZXY-S. shipping is $3.99 to the UK. It has increased from the $2.99 but that is due to the order value going over $40 and that requires Registered Airmail. I agree if it is advertised, it should be honoured, but I wonder why you are seeing $5.99?
 Serpent44 46 points
Not UK, but Lithuania. But nevertheless - declared FREE delivery is fake. My Platinum customer status and almost 100 paid orders for last 2 or 3 years cost nothing... P.S. Probably I will book elsewhere, 4 bucks cheaper and really free shipping.

These are amazing. The new S model now supports planes and quadcopters. They can also have the extra cable to allow you to connect them to a spektrum satellite receiver so that makes it a super small and neat solution. It give your the same as the spektrum ar7200 (beastX rx combo) for very little money. They make setting up fbl helis super easy (10 mins once you know your way around). I have Built 4 fbl helis with these so far and they fly fantastic.

So, I bought this controller to use on a quad... Still tuning the PID settings, but so far it's been awesome! Heading hold mode is great, and it holds very well. I was flying in 20kph winds with 30kph gusts, this controller took it like a champ. Software is simple, straightforward, and works. The USB connector is included, and it can be used hot-swap style (connect once, then you can unplug the unit, test, plug back in, make tweaks, and unplug again, only connecting it once). Gyros seem to be of good quality, control was never jittery, always smooth. I just wish there was more info on flying this with a quad, as there is very little information about it available. I figured it out though, and it works great (may make tutorial vid down the road to help others out, if there is enough demand).

Awesome price/quaity
My HK500CMT flies perfect with it
Makes 3d maneuvers quite easy
I don't see any disadvantage to beastx (on my T-Rex 600ESP)
