Adjustability:
• Separate delay times are available for aileron, elevator, rudder, throttle,
and pitch.
•
With a 50% delay setting, the servo takes about a half-second to move
to its new position, quite a long time.
• In general, delays of approximately 10
-15% are sufficient.

5.3.9 GOVERNORS:
The Governor mixing function is used to adjust the Governor speed settings (rS1, rS2, rS3) from the
transmitter.
What is a governor? A governor is made up of a set of sensors which read the RPM of the helicopter’s head,
and a control unit that automatically adjusts the throttle setting to maintain a constant head speed regardless
of changes in pitch of blades, weather conditions, etc. Governors are extremely popular in competition
helicopters due to the consistency provided.
How does it help in helicopter setup? The governor eliminates the need to spend large amounts of time
setti
ng up throttle curves, as it automatically adjusts the engine’s RPM to maintain the desired head speed
.
Adjustability:
• On/off may be separate from speed switching by plugging
governor on/off into CH8 and changing CUT-CH setting.
• If using
separate on/off, switch assignment is totally adjustable.
