Autopilot Configuration
Allow configuration of different autopilot parts, such as channels allocation, servo travels for
each channel, IR sensor configuration to stabilize the plane, PID controllers and autopilot mode.
To control all aircraft control surfaces, the receiver must provide the multiplexed PPM frame,
to read all input channels using a single input to "Ikarus OSD". If it’s not the case, "Ikarus OSD" can
control the tail throttle, and let aircraft stabilization to an external device.
•
Servo Ranges: Allows setting the minimum, maximum and average travel for each control
involved in the automatic pilot of the plane. Channels may also be reverse if necessary. It’s
necessary to calibrate the Servo CTRL travel for some input modes (Mix223 and Mix224).
•
PPM Channel: Indicates the control channels, in the PPM frame, used for each surface control,
or camera position.
o
Pan Gain: Multiplication factor travel for the PAN channel.
o
Mezcla: Lets you set the mix to be used on the plane.
Normal: There is no mixing
Elevon: Mix elevator and ailerons. Used in flying wings.
V-Tail: Mix elevator and Tail (Rudder). It’s used in aircraft with V-shaped tail rather than
the standard tail.
