channel 6 are the
second
set of pins and that the satellite and sensor connectors are identical. Don’t mix them
up. The receiver has a built-in barometric sensor which can provide altitude and vertical speed (vario) data.
As delivered, the Lemon 10 channel receiver has stabilization disabled and no internal mixes set.
Out of the
packet it functions as a standard 10 channel
DSMX/DSM2™
-compatible receiver.
To use the receiver without stabilization, the only setup you might want to do is to change the default No-pulse
failsafe to User-set, as explained in Step 3 on page 4. In the unstabilized state, any other required programming,
such as mixes, will be done in the transmitter as with any other regular receiver.
To activate stabilization, you need to program the receiver using the push buttons, as shown in Step 4, below.
Step 1: Powering the Receiver
The receiver requires a power supply between 4.0v and 8.5v that can deliver the required current to the servos
without dropping below 4v. The most common source is likely to be an ESC (Electronic Speed Controller) which
will supply 5v to the receiver and servos. The majority of electric powered planes will use this arrangement and
power will automatically be provided through the Throttle connection to channel 1.
The 10 servo connectors have common V+ and Ground pins, as is normal practice, although voltage is normally
supplied on the Throttle channel from the ESC. However this receiver has, in addition, isolated independent
BEC1 and BEC2 power input pins which permit different power arrangements which can increase reliability. (You
can
’
t use these connectors to supply power to anything
–
they are inputs only.)
The three common ways of powering the receiver are:
Via the Throttle Connector
Using an electronic speed controller (ESC) with
inbuilt battery eliminator circuit (BEC). This is the
most common method used for electric powered
models. Connected to channel 1.
Via BEC1
Using an external battery or external BEC. The
Channel 1 connector is used to control throttle
via a servo (for IC power) or an ESC
that does not
have an integrated BEC. The power source
is connected to BEC1
Via
BEC1 and
BEC2
Both BEC1 and BEC2 can be used simultaneously
without the usual concerns about conflicting
voltages. An ESC with integrated BEC feeds
power through BEC1 while a supplementary
power supply is connected to BEC2. Note that no
connection to channel 1 is needed as the throttle
signal is routed automatically from BEC1.
Step 2: Binding the Receiver
To bind the receiver to a specific model memory in the transmitter, use either one of these two methods:
Binding Using the Bind Button
1.
Power ON the receiver (with satellite receiver connected, if used).
