You have to have modes set up on a three position switch to do your calibration; Manual, ATTi and ATTI/GP. You need to set up preset failsafe in your receiver. You can set up a mix in your Tx to force failsafe from your Tx while you still have a RC connection. What happens when you do not. Turn off your Tx while in Assistant to see what happens. My guess is not much. Your throttle needs to be above 10% and the slider needs to move to failsafe regardless of the mode switch position. Does your's do that?
 

So fast to get back to me thanks..dx6i only has 2 position switches...I'll have to mix a differant switch to get a 3rd position....I haven got the GPS yet...just doing lots of research so I know what to do when it gets here..

If you get the GPS set up your 2 position switch to Manual then GPS. After you calibrate the compass, you can switch to what ever set up you want.

here are my settings if you want to try


gear = reverse

mix 1
gear> gear act
rate d 0% u -104%
Sw mix trim inv


mix 2
gear > gear act
reate d - 49% u - 51%
sw ail D/R Trim Inh


gear travel adjustment up 86% down 76%


basically

gear switches between manual and gps.

switching mix to 1 puts it in alti

switcing ail d/r to 1 puts it in failsafe in even if its in alti gps or manual.
