It seems like there's always a lot of questions on how to setup the Lemon stabilizer in a plane. There's a lot of guides out there, but it seems like that first setup can be daunting to a gyro newbie. I created this guide to help out some who may be needing some setup help. Specifically, this guide is made for the Freewing F-16 V2. However, there's no reason this setup couldn't also be used on similar 6ch aircraft utilizing flaperons.
Firstly, there's 2 different Lemon gyro types. The Lemon Stabilizer and the Lemon Stabilizer PLUS. I personally prefer the standard Lemon Stabilizers, since the PLUS versions are a bit more complicated and more tedious to setup (IMO).
Before you get started, make sure you know which version you are using. The standard lemon has the satellite port next to the dials. The PLUS model has a recessed button.
Please note: In order to utilize all 6channels on a Lemon Stabilizer, you MUST have a 7+ channel transmitter. I know this doesn't make sense, but trust me. If you have a Dx6, this guide will not help you. There are gyro options available to you, but the Lemon Stabilizer I reference in this article won't work if you are trying to utilize Flaperons. See the next post for help using a 6ch radio.
This is the standard version w/ Satellite unit:
