Part 6. AIRCRAFT FUNCTIONS
AIRCRAFT menu is the most differ between AT9 and AT10. The menu makes it easier to fly multi copters.
The basic function menu is same like ACRO, GLID and HELI, please find the detail in the former chapters.
Now let’s start the basic setting, take a quad copter for example:
Goals
Steps
Inputs
Prepare your aircraft.
Install all servos switched, receivers, etc.per your model’s instructions.Turn on the
transimitter then receiver; adjust all linkages so surfaces are nearly centered.
Mechanically adjust all linkages as close as possible to proper control
throws.Check servo direction.Make notes now of what you will need to change
during programming.
Select proper MODEL
TYPE.
(Ex:AIRCRAFT)
Open the BASIC menu
find the MODEL TYPE.
Turn on the transimitter,
for 1 sec. to BASIC
menu (If ADVANCE,
again)
to MODEL TYPE
Go to TYPE
to TYPE
Choose proper model type
(Ex: AIRCRAFT).
Confirm the change.
to AIRCRAFT,
for 1 sec. ‘Are you sure?’
Displays,
to confirm.
Name the model.
Note that you do not need to
do anything to ‘save’ or store
this data.
In BASIC menu,Open
MODEL SEL.
to MODEL SEL.
,
to NAME (the 1
st
character of model name is highlighted)
Input aircraft’s name.
Colse
to change the 1
st
character.
.
move to next
character, repeat as needed.
to BASIC.
For proper control operation,
reverse servos as needed.
In the BASIC menu,open
REVERSE.
to REVERSE
,
to choose REV.
Choose desired servo and
reverse its direction of
travel.(Ex:reverse rudder
servo)
to CH4
:
RUDD,
,
so REV highlighted, ‘Are
you sure?’ Displays.
Repeat as needed.
to BASIC.
Adjust travels as needed to
match model’s recommend
throws(usually listed as high
rates)
From BASIC menu
choose END POINT.
to END POINT,
Adjust the servo’s end
points.(Ex:throttle servo)
Close
to CH1:AILE
,
VR(A),
to desired
percentage.
VR(A) to repeat above steps.
Back to choose D/R EXP.
to D/R,EXP
Set up dual/triple rates and
exponential (D/P,EXP) (Note
that in the middle of the left
side of the screen is the name
of the channel and the switch
position you are adjusting.
Two or even THREE rates
may be set per channel by
simply choosing the desired
switch and programming
percentages with the switch
in each of its 2 or 3 positions.
Choose the desired
control, and set the first
(Ex:high) rate throws and
exponential.
to CH
,
to CH:2 (ELEV)
SwA screen reads ELEV
(UP)
to D/R
Elevator Stick
to set rate.
Elevator Stick
to set rate.
(
Normally set the
same as down.
to EXP
Elevator Stick
to set rate.
Elevator Stick
to set rate.
