For a description of the connection method, see "Receiver and Servos Connection". Note: The channel assignment of the T12FG is different from that of our existing systems. (The channel assigned to each function can be checked at the Function menu of the Linkage Menu. ) 5. Throttle/Pitch curve setting This function adjusts the throttle or pitch operation curve in relation to the movement of the throttle stick for each condition. Call the throttle curve of each condition with the condition select switch. < Call the pitch curve of each condition with the condition select switch. º~6º *Stability at hovering may be connected to the throttle curve. Adjustment is easy by using the hovering throttle function and hovering pitch function together. º º º º *If any interactions are noticed, for a description of the linkage correction function, please refer to the SWASH function, p. 65. º <Model Basic Setting Procedure> 39 6. AFR (D/R) AFR (D/R) function is used to adjust the throw and operation curve of aileron, elevator and rudder for each condition. *For throttle and pitch curve settings, refer to the abovementioned "Throttle/Pitch curve setting" Model Menu, and set the curve for each condition. maximum throw directions. Call the mixing curve of each condition with the condition select switch. *For this curve, use the initial setting [EXP1] curve type. Gyro sensitivity and mode switching The gyro sensitivity and mode switching function is dedicated gyro mixing of the Model Menu, and can be set for each condition. *For this curve, [EXP1] curve type can be used and the entire curve can be lowered with the [Offset] function. º *For this curve, [EXP1] curve type can be used and the entire curve can be lowered with the [Offset] function. 9. Throttle hold setting *If throttle hold is necessary, please refer to the THR HOLD function, p. 113. 10. Throttle cut setting Note: When using a GY601, GY502, GY401, or other heading hold gyro, this Pitch to RUD mixing should not be used. When operating the gyro in the AVCS mode, the mixed signal will cause neutral deviation symptoms and the gyro will not operate normally. Throttle cut provides an easy way to stop the at idle. The action is not functional at high throttle to avoid accidental dead sticks. The switch's location and direction must be chosen, as it defaults Use this function when you want to suppress the torque generated by the changes in the pitch and speed of the main rotor during pitch operation. However, when using a heading hold gyro like those shown below, do not use Pitch to RUD mixing. Call the Pitch to RUD mixing function from the *With throttle stick at idle, adjust the cut position until the engine consistently shuts off, but throttle linkage is not binding. 40 <Model Basic Setting Procedure> pitch interaction The swash mix function is used to correct the swash plate in the aileron (Left/Right Cyclic) and elevator (Forward/Aft Cyclic) direction corresponding to each operation of each condition. *If throttle mixing is necessary for a compensation for slowing of engine speed caused by swash plate operation during aileron or elevator operation, please refer to the THROTTLE MIX function, p. 113. <Model Basic Setting Procedure> 41 Receiver and servo connection Connect the receiver and servos in accordance with the connection diagram shown below. Always read [Precautions when mounting the receiver and servos] or [Before using]. When mounting the receiver and servos to the fuselage, connect the necessary points in accordance with the kit instruction manual. Receiver and servos connection diagram ~ ~ Ni-Cd battery Charging port/ DSC connector Receiver switch Servos The Servo connection by model type tables are shown on the following pages. Connect the servos to match the fuselage used. 42 <Model Basic Setting Procedure> Servo connection by model type The T12FG transmitter channels are automatically assigned for optimal combination according to the type selected with the Model Type function of the Linkage Menu. The channel assignment (initial setting) for each model type is shown below. Connect the receiver and servos to match the type used. *The set channels can be checked at the Function screen of the Linkage Menu. For more information, read the description of the Function menu.
