Before you turn on the transmitter to begin programming one of the
model slots for your aircraft, refer to the servo connection
chart AT DIRECTION to see how to plug the servos into their
proper channel sockets in the receiver.
Don't turn on the receiver in your model just yet-we'll tell you when
to do so.
First we'll get started setting up the aircraft in the Initial Setup
program menu, then we'll continue into the Main Function menu to
configure the servo responses and travels of your particular model.
1. Select a model slot:
Hold down both EDIT buttons and slide the on-off switch to "on".
The transmitter will beep, the red light will come on, and on
the LCD screen you will find yourself in the first menu item of
the initial setup menu.
Under the word "MODEL" the number will be blinking on and off
to get your attention. If this is the first model you are setting up
in this transmitter, go ahead and accept this numbered slot by
pushing the right-hand EDIT button to scroll down to the next
menu item.
When there are already models inputted, the number that comes
up when you turn on the transmitter will be the last activated
model slot.
To change to a different slot, push on one of the CURSOR
buttons to go to an empty slot (consult your list!) and then scroll
to the next screen to automatically select it.
2. Select the Model type programming baseline:
In the second menu screen, the programming baseline of ACRO,
GLID, or HELI will be blinking.
Since we are setting up a powered aircraft, select ACRO by
scrolling to it with a CURSOR button. Push down both DATA
buttons simultaneously to tell the program to accept the
choice-you should hear the transmitter beep twice in
acknowledgement.
Now push the right-hand EDIT button to move to the next menu
screen.
3. Heli Swash Plate:
If you selected HELI as your model type, this screen will
appear allowing you to select between NORMAL (90 degree
mechanical) or 120 degree swash plate heli's by pressing
one of the CURSOR buttons.
Find out which one of these popular swash formats your
helicopter uses and select it here.
After selecting the appropriate swash type, continue down to
the next menu item.
Initial Setup Menu Programming for All Aircraft
Warning Display (Low voltage)
When the battery's voltage drops to 6.6 volts, this number starts
blinking on the screen and the transmitter begins to steadily beep.
If your plane is up in the air when this happens, land immediately
so you can recharge the battery.
Warning Display (Flight Condition other than NOR)
If you turn the transmitter on and it immediately starts to beep while
displaying the word "ON" on the screen, one of the flight condition
modes other than Normal is switched on.
The symbol in the black box at the bottom of the screen indicates
which switch (SW1 or SW3) needs to be reset to Normal.
The Tip Sheet If this is your first Airplane¡
If this is your first model Airplane, here are a few tips that will
streamline your experience in programming it.
This will make more sense after you read through the manual.
Refer back to this section when you are ready to begin the setup:
1. Start with the correct model type, ACRO, in the Initial
Setup Menu.
2. Access the main programming menu, then use the REV
function, and make sure all the servos are moving in the
proper direction.
3. After centering the servo arms manually as close as
you can, use the S.TRM or sub-trim function to center
the servos.
4. Set your servo end points with the EPA function.
5. Program -35% EXPO values for aileron, Ch. 1 and
elevator, Ch. 2.
6. After your Plane is all ready to fly, put it on a shelf and
go get an R/C flight simulator program for your PC.
Spend quality time crashing the virtual plane in the
simulator. Using a sim will save you hundreds of dollars
spent on spare parts and countless hours of rebuilding
time in the long run.
7. Ready to fly your new Plane? If you are lucky you will
know someone that is an experienced model pilot and
would be willing to check over your plane and take it up
for its first flight. This is HIGHLY RECOMMENDED,
even if you have to drive a hundred miles to get to this
person!
If you are on your own, start slow and conservatively.
