VWINRC TGZ580 3-Axis Gyro Flight Controller for RC Helicopters

The VWINRC TGZ580 is a 3-axis gyro flight-control unit for RC helicopters, rated for every size from T-Rex 250 to 800 class, with a one-key rescue mode that brings the model back to a level hover on demand. Setup and operation follow the same pattern as the MB Plus Pro 4.20, so pilots who know that system will find it familiar.

Key features

• One-key rescue on transmitter channel 7, the default rescue channel
• Needs a single-line receiver: SBUS, PPM, SRXL or satellite
• Rescue with pitch control lets the helicopter climb away while it levels out
• 3D mode reads whether the model is upright or inverted and returns it to the nearest upright or inverted hover
• Angle-limited mode caps the bank angle so the model cannot tip past vertical even at full stick

Before buying, check that your receiver outputs a single-line signal and that channel 7 is free for the rescue switch; separate-wire PWM receivers cannot drive the rescue function. The unit runs from the 4.5-10 V receiver and servo supply, not directly from the flight pack.
