FLIGHT OPERATION
Start the CORTEXpro in normal operation mode, without the jumper connected. The LED will flash for the first few seconds and indicates the
system’s successful initialization. The model must not be moved during this process, otherwise, the stabilization will remain inactive (device
flashes red constantly), until power-cycled again.
When the system and gyros have been initialized, the servos will indicate this by a double bump on the surfaces. The LED lights up constantly;
its colour indicating the setting (bank and mode) of the gyro channel.
Each time switched on, the CORTEXpro recognizes the transmitter’s neutral trims. This is why no control movements must be given until
initialization is completed.

Setup completed successfully. Now pull the jumper and switch off.
Do not move model or sticks durcing initialization.
Failure
: system not initialized due to movement!
Waiting for input signal: LED pulses red
Failure
: no axis teached in!
Waiting for neutral sticks. If the LED blinks white continuously, repeast
setup, or check the transmitter‘s neutrals.
After successful initialization, the servos will respond with a double
bump.
Constant LED light => ready for operation
•
If the jumper is pulled out before the end of the setup, the
system’s condition is undefined. Repeat setup.
•
Do not teach any extremely short throws. This can lead to
errors, as the system may not recognize any greatly reduced
throw as an input.
NOTES REGARDING SETUP
•
Setup sequence only starts in case of correct RC reception.
•
Setup can be repeated at any time by power-cycling
(with jumper in place).
•
If the device is switched off before the end of the setup
sequence, no changes will be saved, but a possible previous
setup retained.
