ADVANCED FLEXJET TV AURA CONFIGURATION
23
The Aura 8 installed in the FlexJet is equipped with two possible Aura configurations - Stock and Expert. These may be accessed
WITHOUT THE USE OF the Aura Config Tool (WINDOWS-BASED PC OR TABLET programming application)
by using the Aura Quick
Set feature.
The expert program is gyro-enabled in all 3 flight modes. If you wish to use a secondary switch to be able to turn the Aura off, we
recommend using the Wizard in the Aura Config Tool, and setting up a Gyro Kill switch.

Make sure all power is removed from the FlexJet. Be sure to unplug all three motor wires from ESC for safety.
Turn on your transmitter. Ensure you are on the correct model memory.
Remove the servo lead that is in Aura Port S2.
Insert a bind plug into Aura Port S2.
Power the FlexJet by plugging a battery into the ESC. The LEDs on the Aura will repeatedly double flash orange. This confirms you
have entered Quick Set mode. The Green LED may be flashing, or solid. More information regarding the green LED is below.
Use the Aux1/CH6 switch (assigned earlier for Aura Flight Modes) to select the Expert or Stock Aura configurations.
If the green LED on the Aura is
SOLID
, the Aura is set to use the
STOCK
configuration.
If the green LED on the Aura is
FLASHING
, the Aura is set to use the
EXPERT
configuration.
You may optionally assign a Master Gain. (Before running Quickset, assign a proportional slider or knob to CH8/Aux3 in your
transmitter). Master Gain will default to OFF when Quickset is run.
Sweep the CH8 Down and then UP.
The
RED LED will illuminate
SOLID-ON for Master Gain ON, and OFF for master gain OFF.
Leave in the desired state/choice and continue.
Once you have selected your configuration, simply remove the bind plug from S2. All LEDs on Aura will be on while Aura is saving the
settings. Once saved, the Aura will go back to its previous LED configuration from step 6. Power off the airplane and Aura, and replace
the servo lead back into Aura Port S2.
Power on the radio system and verify that all controls function, and that both the transmitter direction test and Aura sensor direction test
pass. Familiarize yourself with the new flight modes and their relative switch positions, and enjoy flying with your new flight modes!

Programming Expert Profile with Quick Set
Description of Expert Profile Aura Flight Modes (FM)
Each of the modes has been tuned by the Flex Team to offer a solid start. Because tastes in control feel are unique, if changes in rates
and expo are needed, adjustments should be made through the
Aura 8,
not the transmitter.
.
Changes in gain value can only be made through the Aura or via
master gain (if activated)
.
Flight Mode 1 (Sport / Precision):
Gyro gain is set to low. All rates are set to low for sport / precision flight. Exponential is tuned for comfortable flight. Tailerons are active.
Thrust Vectoring is active and set to moderate rates.
Flight Mode 2 (Mixed Flying):
Gyro gain is set to medium. All rates are set to medium for mixed flying. Exponential is tuned for comfortable flight. Tailerons are active.
Thrust Vectoring is active and set to high rates.
Mode 3 (3D Rate):
Gyro gains are high and tuned for low-speed post-stall flight. All rates are set to highest. Exponential is tuned for comfortable flight.
Tailerons are active. Thrust Vectoring is active and set to high rates.
Do NOT fly at High Speed. Doing so
may induce gyro
osciliations!!
