    OK, here's the problem.  I use several Eagle A3 super and A3 Super 2 on several of my 4 channel planes.  Setup is easy and never any problem.  I recently bought a Delta wing and after several days of frustration I cannot get the gyro (either one of them and also swapped gyro from the other working planes with no positive result) to operate.  When I follow the manual (for either the super 2 or a3 super) and connect the wires throws don't work, throws in opposite direction or only one elevon works and the other just sits there.  I swapped out servos but no difference.  i.e.  When I use up elevator one goes up and the other down.  When I connect the rudder channel (for the nose wheel only)  The elevator moves instead.  If I connect the rudder wire directly to channel 4 on the receiver it works but then it causes the flaps to operate also.  If I don't use the gyro I can get everything working fine just using my Tactic 650.  Changing the transmitter options makes no difference. HELP!   Alan

    I'm assuming you changed the gyro setting from "normal" configuration to "Delta" wing configuration? If so, and you have wired it correctly, I have no other suggestions. Is it mounted in a different orientation in the wing?

      I found the problem. Since following the instructions in the manual didn't seem to help, I decided to experiment with different wire connections and finally discovered the right combination. Totally different than what the manual said to do. Apparently setting up the Eagle A3 Super for a Delta Wing is totally back-asswards from a normal 4 channel plane.
