5.3.8 DELAY:
The Delay function provides a smooth transition between the trim positions whenever OFFSET, REVO,
MIXING, or THROTTLE HOLD functions are turned on and off.
ADJUSTABILITY:
Separate delay times are available for aileron, elevator, r udder, throttle, and pitch.
With a 50% delay setting, the servo takes about a half-second to move to its new position, quite a long
time.
In general, delays of approximately 10-15% are sufficient.

5.3.9 GOVERNORS:
The Governor mixing function is used to adjust the Governor speed settings (rS1, rS2, rS3) from the
transmitter.
What is a governor? A governor is made up of a set of sensors which read the RPM of the helicopter’s
head, and a control unit t hat automatically adjusts the throttle setting to maintain a constant head speed
regardless of changes in pitch of blades, weather conditions, etc. Governors are extremely popular in
competition helicopters due to the consistency provided.
How does it help i n helicopter setup? The governor eliminates the need to spend large amounts of time
setting up throttle curves, as it automatically adjusts the engine’s RPM to maintain the desired head speed.
