The last stage is to check the settings, so move from
the basic display to “
Servo display ” by simultaneously
touching the  buttons of the left-hand touch-key: in
the switch’s “OFF” position, the control channel you have
selected - in our example this is channel “8” - should be
at -100%, and at the “full-throttle” setting at +100%.
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.
Example 2
Using a two-position switch, SW 2, 3 or 8
This variant implements a pure ON / OFF function, and
results in the motor starting “abruptly” … unless the
speed controller you are using features what is known
as a “soft start” function.
At the receiving end you need either a simple electronic
switch or - if you want a smoother motor start - a suit-
able speed controller.
The settings for this arrangement are entered in the …
“Transmitter control settings” menu (page 94)
First check which receiver socket (5 or higher) is avail-
able for connection to your speed controller. If you have
assigned two aileron servos in the “
Base settings
”
menu, and if you have not connected any other auxiliary
function, then this would be channel 6; if your model
features two aileron servos and two flap servos, then
channel 8 would be available for connecting the speed
controller; the latter option is the one we wish to use in
this example.
First set the selected switch to the “OFF” position, then
use the arrow buttons
 of the left or right-hand
touch-key to select the desired line in the menu. Touch
the central
SET
button of the right-hand touch-key to
activate “Switch / transmitter control assignment”, then
move the selected switch from the “OFF” position to
the “ON” position. The highlighted field now shows the
switch number together with a symbol which indicates
the direction of switching:
