Step 8. Setting travel adjust: Press the Up key until the
“TRVL ADJ.” screen appears. Pressing the CH key will allow
access to each channel. Adjust the travel of each channel to the
following throws using the (+) or (-) key. Move the correspond-
ing control stick in the desired direction to adjust the travel
amount in that direction. Press the
Select key to access the other
four channels.
Note: To get the most performance out of your Ultra Stick ™ ,
long servo arms (1") are recommended. This provides
for large control throws for more aggressive maneu-
vers. To achieve the control throws listed below, long
servo arms may be necessary.

Step 9. Using exponential: Exponential is used to reduce
the sensitivity of control around center while still providing full
control authority when the control stick is fully deflected.
Because the Ultra Stick
™ 40 uses large control throws, it’s a good
idea to give expo a try, even if you’ve never used it before, to
help prevent over-controlling. The exponential rate is adjusted in
the same screen as the dual rate from above. In the “D/R & EXP”
screen, press the
Select key to move the cursor to the EXP at the
bottom of the screen. Pressing the (+) key will adjust the expo
value. Use the
Channel key to select the aileron, elevator or
rudder channel, then use the corresponding dual rate switch to
select position 0 or 1. Separate expo values can be programmed
for position 0 and 1. We recommend an expo value of 30% on
aileron and 25% on elevator and rudder for the first flights then,
on subsequent flights, adjust the value until the desired control
feel is achieved.
Always use A+ Expo Value! Using the A- expo value will
actually make control response more sensitive around center
and could cause a crash.
