Select technology can be easily assigned to any open switch (2 or 3
position) on your transmitter. With this feature, you have the exibility to enable
or disable the technology while in ight.
IMPORTANT: Before assigning your desired switch, ensure that the travel for
that channel is set at 100% in both directions and the aileron, elevator, rudder
and throttle are all on high rate with the travel at 100%. Turn throttle hold OFF
if it is programmed in the transmitter.
CAUTION: Keep all body parts well clear of the rotor, intakes and
exhaust tube and keep the aircraft securely restrained in case of
accidental throttle activation.
Assigning a switch
1. Bind the aircraft correctly to activate SAFE Select. This will allow the
system to be assigned to a switch.
2. Hold both transmitter sticks to the inside bottom corners and toggle the
desired switch 5 times (1 toggle = full up and down) to assign that switch.
The control surfaces of the aircraft will move, indicating the switch has
been selected.
Repeat the process to assign a different switch or to deactivate the current
switch if desired.
TIP: SAFE Select is assignable on any unused Channels 5–9.
The SAFE Select switch must be assigned to the Flap switch (switch D)
BEFORE proceeding to the Transmitter Setup and should start from a blank
(reset) model. Failure to assign the SAFE switch prior to programming the other
model functions may prevent the SAFE switch from assigning correctly. Users
of the DX6 and DX6e will have the SAFE Select functionality linked to the aps.
The values given in the Transmitter Setup table turn SAFE ON when the aps
are fully deployed. SAFE is OFF when the aps are not fully deployed.
IMPORTANT: When programming the Flap System function in the transmitter
setup of the DX6 and DX6e, set the Speed value to Norm. Adding any delay to
the deployment of the aps will also delay the activation of SAFE.
