Ok, I have been flying hbfp, still learning, got a hold of a walkera 62 yesterday, I unpluged all the servo wires and now don't know which servo goes where? I know the throttle is the esc wire, the gyro goes to the rudder, but I have no idea which of the 3 servos do what for the head. There is one servo on the left ( looking from the tail, tail in) then there are 2 servos behind the main rotor one on left and one on right. I see that these servos hook to the swash plate. The one on the left goes to the front of the swash and the other two hook to the swash side balls. Could someone please tell me how to identify which is the pitch, aileron or elevator? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Can't tell you "top, middle, bottom" cuz I don't own one. Someone here can, but they don't seem to be here right now. You can figure it out empirically. Plug them in any old way, front servo top, L middle, R bottom. Turn on TX and heli. Move stick forward. Front of swash should go down. If it doesn't, whichever servo DOES go down is plugged into the socket for the front one. Do the same with L and R until you get it all sorted. Then maybe write it down somewhere so you don't have to do this again.

Aileron and elevator are almost always 1 and 2. Throttle is 3, gyro is 4 (and 5 if there's a single gain wire), Cyclic is usually 6. These are fairly common, but you never know. Disconnect the motor and try them.

Thanks, helihobby has pictures of swashplates and how the typical setup is. I appreciate the info, but the problem is, the swashplate does not more clearcut like that, but I'm just inexperienced. Seems like they should have a forum for beginner CP dedicated to CP, maybe this is the forum for that. Lol.
