Programming example - fi xed-wing model
Example 3
Using one of the three-position switches SW 4/5 or
6/7
This variant implements a three-stage solution for
switching an electric motor on and off, and also results
in an “abrupt “ motor start-up … unless the speed con-
troller you are using features what is known as a “soft
start” function.
At the receiving end you need a suitable speed controller.
First check which receiver socket (5 or 6) is available to
connect your speed controller. If you have assigned two
aileron servos in the “
Basic settings
” menu, and if you
have not connected any other auxiliary function, then
this would be channel 6; this is the option we will use in
our example.
Move to the …
“Transmitter control settings”
menu (page
74)
… and use the arrow buttons
cd
of the left or right-
hand four-way button to select the desired line. Press
the central
SET
button of the right-hand four-way button
to activate “Switch / transmitter control assignment”.
Move the selected three-position switch; the highlighted
fi eld now shows the number of this transmitter control,
for example “Transmitter control 9”.
