Power on screen display

When the gyro power is turned on after the transmitter power was
turned on, -Hello- blinks for about three seconds to initialize the data
inside the gyro. During this period, do not move the transmitter
rudder stick or the helicopter. If the transmitter rudder stick or the
helicopter is moved by mistake, the rudder neutral data will not be
correctly read.

Normal screen display

•Operation mode display
  N : NOR mode
  A : AVCS mode
    : Neutral offset

•Actual gain (sensitivity)
  display

•Power supply voltage display
•During rudder neutral reset operation,
  **** is displayed.
•During rudder servo reset operation by
  rudder stick, ---- is displayed.

Low battery alarm

When the power supply voltage drops to 3.8V or less,
LOW Batt is displayed. When this message is displayed,
immediately stop use and recharge the Nicd battery.
