I also assigned the switch icons and put in my custom GUI which will work on all these transmitters: DEVO 6/6S/7e/8/8S/10/12/12S.
You have ELEV servo reversed so I left it that way as I assume it needed to be reversed.
Before you lift off check all the servo directions. Lift off with the MIX switch on position "0" which is the setting the manual said to use.
If the tail spins or doesn't hold use the MIX switch on position "1" or "2"
which has much more gyro gain.
Gyro Gain - These are the values I used then converted them to the deviation values.
Mix Switch
Pos 0: 25% (This is what the manual listed to use even though it sounds very low)
Pos 1: 50%
Pos 2: 75%
TX Power=100mW
Stick Mode 2
No Fixed ID
protocol=J6Pro
Here are the settings I added to your model.
DR/EXPO
Adjust D/R and EXPO to your personal preference.
Switch Position
0- ELEV D/R = 50% EXP +30%
0- AILE D/R = 50% EXP +30%
RUDD D/R = 100% EXP LIN
Switch Position
1- ELEV D/R = 70% EXP +30%
1- AILE D/R = 70% EXP +30%
RUDD D/R = 100% EXP LIN
I used the exact pitch curves and throttle curves the manual listed.
Same with the gyro value which is on the Mix Switch Pos 0. I made Switch Pos 1 & 2 higher values as you will probably need them. There 25% sounds too low.
Throttle Hold is active on RUDD D/R switch
Rename the model name to model23 or any model number you have free.

The manual is not very good. It doesn't list the Reverse Settings, Swash Type, or DR/EXPO settings.
Let me know if the servos worked correctly or if you had to reverse any.
I think you tested the model you posted for servo direction and they were all correct which you had to reverse ELE on Channel 2.
Also what MIX Switch position(s) for Gyro gain worked best for you.
If the model works good I will add it to my list of models so people can use it. If any changes need to be made I will make them before I post the model.
EDIT: The Nine Eagles Solo Pro 180 3D post on Rcgroups says to Reverse Channel 1 ALIE and Channel 4 Rudder. If they are correct here is the a model with ALIE and Rudder reversed.

The only issue is the Throttle Hold is not working?

I am thinking of making some How to videos to cover some basic things in
the advanced mixer.

You can see what I did in the model file which will help you understand some things.
Downloading and looking at other peoples models help me learn a lot.
I'm glad you got the helicopter flying!!!
The helicopter looks nice. It looks like the Walkera V120D02S V2 which I have and like a lot.

No problem. The model you posted in post 19552 (model23.ini) is the model you are flying and is working well so I will add it to my models list.
Keep me updated when you fly more and let me know what Gyro setting is working the best for you and what changes you make that work better for you.
Thanks for all the information. It helped me make the model for you and now others can also use it. I will list the model was made by you and I.
