When you add Flight Modes within Forward Programming, additional tuning
options are added in the AS3X Setting menu. Be sure to change through all
the flight modes with your assigned switch and verify values for each feature
for every flight mode.
Select
Forward Programming
->
Gyro Settings
->
AS3X Settings
• AS3X Gains
can be adjusted for each axis and each mode. Change the
flight mode switch position when this option is selected and a separate
screen will appear for AS3X gains on each flight mode. Adjust the values
in each mode and each axis as needed.
• Priority
screens will also appear for each flight mode, adjust the values
as desired.
• Heading
screens will appear for each flight mode and are defaulted to
zero. You can increase this value to make the aircraft hold its attitude
when control input is neutral. Heading gain on the yaw axis is generally
not recommended because it will require the pilot to steer the aircraft
through any heading changes.
• Fixed/Adjustable Gain
will let you use fixed values or adjust the gain
from the assigned Gain channel. Each Flight Mode has a separate
screen with a separate set of values so each axis can be set to Fixed or
Adjustable in each Flight Mode.
• Capture Gyro Gains
lets you easily set your base gain setting. If you are
using a slider, knob or trimmer to adjust gain when test flying, you can set
the value you arrive at as the base gain setting in the flight modes using
this function. Select this option from the AS3X Settings menu, verify flight
mode, verify the slider, knob or trimmer is in the desired position, and
select Capture Gyro Gains to set the values for the chosen Flight Mode.
Adding Flight Modes outside of Forward Programming
(in the transmitter)
Flight Modes outside of forward programming are set up in the main transmitter
menu and are separate from Flight Modes set up within forward programming.
Flight Modes in the transmitter tie together transmitter-based features like dual
rates and expo, selected channels and positions, trim, and voice/sound features.
