i'm setting up my futaba 7cap with reflex and i need some help

originally i couldn't get the blue usb interface to recognize my transmitter so i got the new red usb with the latest software from model rectifier co, much props to them for sending a new one, so now the software can recognize and "see" my transmitter.

i'm using a blank heli profile on my 7cap. first, the software can't see any inputs from the elevator and airleron stick when i assign channels, no big deal i just click on the correct channel for each function

now i noticed when i start to hover the heli wants to roll left and forward. i always have to move the stick right and back to keep it level. so i added sub trim to compensate and it's more manageable now, but it's kind of annoying to need a subtrim especially if i've already calibrated the center sticks.

but this is worst when i suddenly increase the throttle the heli wants to roll left and forward again even with the sub trim. what's going on???

what's your transmitter setup on the reflex?? and idle up setups?? thanks

looks like i found the culprit. i was using a HR3 swashplate which was doing a mixing function. i changed it to a H-1 swashplate and it works fine now. i think this is also applicable to most sims out there. so if you run into the same issue, do not have any mixing in your transmitter. better to do it in the program level.
