Hi! I'm a heli newbie, I just got a walkera 60 and the wk-1001 transmitter set. I started to change the wk-601 receiver the heli originally had with the wk-1001. The instructions explained that ch1 is Elevator, ch2 is Aileron, ... ch6 is Pitch/Aux1. Well my question is as simple as it can get... which one is the elevator servo, which is the aileron and which the pitch??? Obviously its CCPM. If you are looking the heli from the top and its is facing front we have 2 servos at the back of the swashplate and one on front. I would REALL appreciate it if someone could tell me that i.e. the back right servo is.... whatever it is.
Thank you in advance... And congrats to everyone for this wonderfull community!!!

Ok so I found the manual I posted in a different topic and solved this problem. But problems don't seem to have an end.... First of all the heli just won't lift off... Full throttle and nothing... I realise it is a pitch problem and I am currently working on it. Now the second bizare issue is with the transmitter. As I said I got a wk-1001 Mode 2 transmitter. The problem is that every servo movement is ok except for the elevation which is reverse! I puch the elevation sticj up and the heli goes (if it ever lifts off) back. I push the stick down and it goes forward. BUT if I push left it goes left and if I push right it goes right. When I push the throttle stick up the whole swashplate goes up as it should. So you can realise that if I reverse the elevator servo from the transmitter, ALL the movements will go wrong...

Please, please, please help....

I don't know diddly for walkera TX but since help seems along way off I'll give it a go.

If you swap chans on the L and right servos they should now be movin in opposite directions for the actual aileron function but all three servos moving in the same direction. Then reversing the ails chan will get the ails working the right way. reversing the elevator chan will get the elevator working the right way. You may need to reverse the pitch to get it going the right way.

When dealling with CCPM with poor or no instructions. Unplug the motors

I get the elevator working the right way (it's the only one semi independant)

then I get the ails working the right way

then check and see if they work together in pitch if not swap the L/R servo chan (swap the plugs at the RX) and reverse the ail chan. Now they should be working together.

If the pitch is backwards reverse the pitch chan. normally by making it a negative number in swash AFR, but I think you have a switch in the back)

That's pretty much my HB CP2 method as they don't assume you are gonna swap TXs.

Hope it helped.
