[. . . ] Select the single mode (Sngl) and adjust the condition you want to change. 7. Airbrake This function is used when an air brake is necessary when taking off or diving, etc. 9. <Model Basic Setting Procedure> 41 Helicopter basic setting procedure 1. To add new models or to call a model already set, use the Model Select function of the Linkage Menu. 3. Flight condition addition The transmitter can install up to eight flight conditions per model. You can assign all switches including sticks, switches, trim levers and trim switches as flight-condition selection switches. You can also add delayed mixing to these functions in order to avoid sudden changes. In addition, you can copy conditions and/or change names of conditions. This command may also be used to define what switches and/or controls are The Condition Select function automatically the default condition, and is the only one active when a and remains on until other conditions are activated by switches. The Condition Delay is used to change the servo throw smoothly when switching conditions. This is convenient when calling a model after registering the model names in advance. Data can also be saved to the accessory Data-Pack. ) The currently called model is displayed at the top Please be aware that the transmitter will stop transmitting when you change the model. When a new model is added, the Model Type Select screen and Frequency/Modulation mode/Receiver ID setup screen automatically appear. Change, or check that they match the type, frequency, and receiver type of the model used. 2. Model type and swash type selection When a separate model type is already selected, select helicopter with the Model Type function of the Linkage Menu, and then select the swash type matched to the helicopter. The priority is throttle hold/idle up 2/idle up 1/ normal. Add other conditions, as required. 42 <Model Basic Setting Procedure> 4. Fuselage linkage Connect the throttle rudder, ailerons, elevators, pitch, and other rudder linkages in accordance with the kit instruction manual. For a description of the connection method, see "Receiver and Servos Connection". *The channel assignment of the FX-40 is different assigned to each function can be checked at the Function menu of the Linkage Menu. ) 5. Throttle curve setting This function adjusts the pitch operation curve in relation to the movement of the throttle stick for each condition. (17 points curve) The pitch curve can be freely selected from linear operation curve to smooth curve, and adjusted to match the curve you want by means of the T14MZ's powerful Curve Edit Function (6 types of curves can be selected). However, when using the 3 points smooth curve can be created by selecting the curve type and reducing the number of input points to 3 or 5, and then entering the specified value at the corresponding points that you created. Call the throttle curve of each condition with the condition select switch. <Model Basic Setting Procedure> 43 Example of pitch curve setting: *Pitch curve graph display can be switched to pitch angle direct reading display. º~6º 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. [. . . ] *Initial value: +100. 0% (rate), +0. 0 (EXP rate) (EXP1 curve) smoothening starting of the ailerons, elevators, rudder, etc. (EXP2 curve) The curve can also be horizontally offset in the vertical direction. *Initial value: +0. 0 VTR curve adjustment Rate A and Rate B can be adjusted separately or simultaneously. Rate B) can also be adjusted separately or simultaneously. *[Separate] mode: Positions and rates are *[Combined] mode: Positions and rates are rise and other engine control. (VTR curve) 1. Touch the button of the rate or VTR curve point position (or rate) you want to set. [. . . ]
