MODE CONVERSION

Centering screw

Programming Conversion:

1. Change the mode within the System Setup -> System Settings.

2. Calibrate the sticks within the System Settings menu.

Mechanical Conversion:

Mechanical conversion is required to change between Modes 1

and 2 or between Modes 3 and 4. The mechanical conversion

consists of the following steps:

1. Change the Throttle Ratchet/throttle tension; Remove the tension

on the side the was throttle, and apply the tension on the side that

will be throttle.

2. Adjust the Elevator Centering Screw When changing between

Modes 1 and 2, or between Modes 3 and 4, you must adjust

the elevator centering screw.

1. H

old the Elevator or Throttle stick in the full up or full down

position when you are adjusting the elevator centering

screw. Holding the gimbal stick reduces the load on the

elevator centering mechanism and makes it easier to

adjust the centering screw.

2. Use a Phillips screwdriver to adjust the elevator centering

screw. Tightening the screw will engage the centering spring.

IMPORTANT: Do not remove the Mode change screws too far or you will

have to open the case to put it back together.

You can select transmitter modes 1, 2, 3 or 4 for the NX8. Converting

the mode requires both a programming and a mechanical change.
