In addition to the four dual-axis stick units for the con-
trol functions 1 to 4, the
mx
-24s transmitter is equip-
ped as standard with various auxiliary controls. In de-
tail these are:
• Two INC / DEC buttons: CONTROL 5 and 6
• Two three-position switches: CONTROL 7 + 8, or
SW 5 + 6 and SW 9 + 10
• Two side-mounted proportional controls: CONT-
ROL 9 + 10
• Five two-position switches: SW 1 to 4, 7
• One two-position momentary switch: SW 8
In this menu these transmitter controls can be assi-
gned freely to any function input (see page 28), with
absolutely no restriction . A side-effect of this arrange-
ment is that one transmitter control can also be set to
operate several function inputs simultaneously, e. g.
inputs 11
and 12.
Inputs 5 to 8 can also be assigned differently for each
fl ight phase, provided that you have defi ned fl ight
phases in the »
Phase settings « menu (page 102)
and the » Phase assignment « menu (page 104). In
this case the names assigned to each fl ight phase
are displayed in the bottom line of the screen, e. g.
“normal”. In contrast, inputs 9 to 12 can only be occu-
pied once in each model memory (1 to 40). A trans-
mitter control assigned to one of these inputs there-
fore has the same effect in all fl ight phases.
Note:
The position of the two INC / DEC buttons 5 + 6 in in-
puts 5 … 12 is still stored separately for each fl ight
phase (see also page 28).
The transmitter controls mentioned above can be as-
signed to the fl ight phase specifi c inputs 5 to 8 and
inputs 9 to 12, which can only be assigned once in
each model memory, and the same is true of the C1
stick (transmitter control 1).
Basic procedure:
1. Select the appropriate transmitter control 5 to 12
with the rotary control pressed in.
2. Turn the rotary control to select SEL , SYM or ASY
in the bottom line of the screen, so that you can
carry out the adjustments you wish to make.
3. Press the rotary control: the input fi eld you wish to
modify is highlighted (black background).
4. Carry out the adjustment using the rotary control,
or by moving the desired switch or transmitter con-
trol.
5. Press the rotary control to conclude the input pro-
cess.
6. Repeat the procedure in the other fl ight phases, if
relevant.
Column 2 “Control or switch assignment”
Select one of the transmitter inputs 5 to 12 with the
rotary control pressed in.
Use the rotary control to select the left-hand SEL
fi eld, or – if SEL is already highlighted – activate the
assignment facility with a brief press on the rotary
control:

Move desired switch
or control adj.
–
Now move the desired transmitter control (C1 stick,
CTRL 5 to 10), or the selected switch (SW 1 to 4, 7
or 8), noting that the two INC / DEC buttons 5 + 6 are
only detected after a few “beeps”; this means that you
must hold them pressed in for slightly longer than nor-
mal. If the travel is no longer suffi cient for this, move
the control in the opposite direction. In the case of the
assigned two-position switches it is only possible to
switch “to and fro”, e. g. motor ON and OFF. Natural-
ly, the two three-position switches also provide a cen-
tre position.
Tip:
When assigning switches please take care to set the
appropriate direction of switching. It is also a good
idea to switch all inputs not currently required to
“free”, to eliminate the risk of operating them acciden-
tally using transmitter controls which are not meant to
be in use.
The screen now displays either the number of the
transmitter control or the switch number, together with
a switch symbol which indicates the switch status;
e. g.:
0% +100%+100% 0.0 0.0
Throt 0% +100%+100% 0.0 0.0
Gyro 0% +100%+100% 0.0 0.0
