orientation, you can either roll the device 90 degrees to the left and mount it to the left side of the fuselage or
90 degrees to the right and mount it to the right side of the fuselage. in this way there is no need to rearrange
all the RX and servo channel wires.
Please see the stick config section for updating the device mounting orientation and storing it into the
EEPROM.
Stick Configuration Mode
To enter stick configuration mode, move the AIL/ELE stick to
7-9-7-9-7
positions
within 15 seconds
after
powering up the device (assuming mode 2 TX).
The position numbers correspond to the telephone pad. 1 = top left (roll left nose down), 9 = bottom right (roll
right nose up).
Start from position 7 (roll left nose up)
:
Note that the device assumes that the stick will
visit the bottom left corner (position 7) first
and will
calibrate its orientation from that reference point. you could also enter stick configuration with 9-7-9-7-9, 1-3-
1-3-1 or 3-1-3-1-3 stick transitions but the up/down and/or left/right directions will be reversed while in
configuration mode.
Once in configuration mode, the ELE servo toggles to indicate the config item and the AIL servo toggles to
indicate the config value:
Move the AIL stick
left or right
to change the config item and the ELE stick
up or down
to change the config
value.
WING mode and Roll/Pitch/Yaw gains are
ignored
on the RX3S since they use the DIP switches and VR
POTs for WING mode and axes gains, respectively.
For the Pitch/Roll/Yaw gain, the AIL servo toggles one way to indicate positive gain and the opposite way to
indicate negative gain. It does not toggle when the gain is zero. Try it to get a better idea.
Selecting the last config item (Exit) and then changing the config value from 1 to 2 will write the updated
config to the EEPROM and reboot the device. This is the only way to exit the stick configuration mode (other
than power cycling the device).
