The MC-18 transmitter permits the storing the data of
seven models and 30 models
2
, including all trim data.
To this end, actual trim data have to be stored into the
trim memory via code 59, so the trim sliders of control
functions ailerons, elevator and rudder can be moved
to the centre position. In this manner finding trim data
required for a newly selected model (after a change of
model) will be very much simplified, as all you’ve got
to remember is that all trim levers will occupy the
centre position.
After calling code 56, model selection is performed
either directly by entering the model number under
which the desired model has been stored, or by
skimming through the index of stored models to and
fro via keys
INC
and
DEC
. In either case the name
of the currently selected model will appear in the
lower line of the display. You still have the possibility
to correct your selection by entering another model or
by skimming the index once again.
The selected model will be activated by
ENTER
. If
the
CLEAR
key is pressed instead of
ENTER
,
complete deletion of the selected model data can be
initiated. This process is be performed by the
ENTER
key, and aborted by any other key.
In case the model selected has been programmed for
another kind of modulation than the preceding one,
the display message “POWER OFF” indicates that
you’ve got to turn the transmitter off and then on
again so that the switch from PCM to PPM (or vice
versa) can be made.

The MC-18 transmitter permits operation on PPM
(Pulse Position Modulation) or PCM (Pulse Code
Modulation).
Switch over is provided by code 95, using the
INC
and
DEC
keys.
After a change of the modulation mode, the display
text will indicate that the transmitter has to be turned
off momentarily, so that it can swap over to the
changed modulation.

Fundamentally there are four different modes for
allocating the control functions ailerons, elevator,
rudder and throttle to the two control sticks. Which of
them is used depends on the individual preferences
of the modeller.
The selection of the desired mode of operation is
performed by selection of code 57 via keys

Changeover of the internal mechanical spring
centring will be required when changing between
even and odd mode numbers.
