Control
The term control stands for all control
elements of your radio with which you can
operate it - joysticks, buttons, softkeys (not
the level switches).
Mode
(change the assignment
of the joysticks)
You can choose the assignment of controls
to channels at the receiver freely. For a
quick swap you can use the function [Menu]
> [Radio] > [Control swap]. This functions
allows you to swap all controls with each
other even joystick function with softkey
pair.
Dual-Rate
(switch control travel)
If you want the control travel to be switch-
able you can use the level switches. This
way you can make extensive adjustments
because all settings and mixer functions can
be switched.
See chapter Tips&Tricks and
Mixer Functions - Dual Rate
Reset
(undo changes)
With the red button [Reset] you can set all
settings in the control and channel menus
back to default.
With the control outputs [Reset] first resets
the inserted values. If they are already reset
pressing [Reset] a second time deletes the
channel assignment for the current control
output.
For the servo channels pressing [Reset] first
resets the inserted values. If they are
already reset pressing [Reset] a second
time sets the channel type to [Servo].
Reverse
(reverse direction of a
control or channel)
The direction that a control affects e.g. a
servo can be reversed in several menus.
Select [Reverse] for a control and it changes
all connected servo channels. If you select
[Reverse] for the servo channel it only
affects this one channel. You can also
change the direction by adjusting the direc-
tion values for [Left/Down] and [Right/Up].
Tip:
Adjust the direction for the servo
channel so that the direction/function
corresponds
to
the
description
[Left/Down] and [Right/Up]. Then you don’t
have to change it in the control menu.
Expo
(change characteristics of the joysticks)
This function is only available for the
joysticks and not for all control types. A
negative expo value decreases the effect of
small deflections and allows sensitive
steering.
A positive value on the other hand increases
the effect of small deflections. In both cases
the maximum deflection stays the same.
If you swap a joystick control with a softkey
pair the expo adjustment disappears from
the control menu. If you swap the controls
back the expo adjustments are restored and
active again.
Trim
(adjust middle position of the controls)
The trim, the adjustment of the middle posi-
tion for the joystick channels is far less used
with truck models than with flying models.
Therefore the softkeys are also used for
trimming. See [Menu] > [Trim]. It’s an alter-
native to use a softkey pair or the second
level of a joystick.
See chapter Tips&Tricks
Mixer Functions
While radios for flying use many preset
mixers (not useful for vehicles) your Zwo4
HS16 has a universal and clear concept.
Each control can affect up to three servo
channels - one servo channel can be
controlled by any number of controls. All
necessary adjustments are accessible in the
control menu so there is no need for a
special mixer menu.
