Gyro Sensitivity
The gyro sense software of the PCM9X allows the pilot to change the gyro gain
remotely from the transmitter. The gyro can be controlled manually from the
rudder dual rate switch or automatically with the flight mode switch. The rudder
dual rate switch allows two gains to be chosen, while the auto function allows you
to select three gains. The gain lead from the gyro should be connected to the
AUX2 channel of the receiver.
When in automatic mode you can choose which gain should be active on which
flight mode as shown below.
Program Mix
The PCM9X offers three (3) programmable mixes to be used for a number of
different purposes. The functions allows mixing any one channel to any other
channel. The mix can remain ON at all times, or be switched OFF in
flight using a number of different switches. Each channel is identified by a
four character name (i.e., Aileron - AILE, Elevator - ELEV, etc.). The channel
appearing first is known as the “master channel”. The second channel is
known as the “slave channel”. For example, AILE - RUDD would indicate
aileron to rudder mixing — each time the aileron stick is moved, the aileron
will deflect, and the rudder will automatically move in the direction and to the
value input. Mixing is proportional, so small inputs of the master channel will
produce small outputs of the slave channel.
Multi-Point Programmable Mixing (Mixers 1 and 2)
Programmable mixes 1 and 2 have the capability for multi-point
programmable mixing. The graphic mixing curve, located on the right side of
your screen, indicates the mixing curve selected and is a useful reference tool
when adjusting or storing points. Up to 7 points can be stored, and these
