Basic setting sequence of airplane and glider
1. Call of the model
The ET12 transmitter has 30 built-in models from
the factory, and you can use the [Model Selection]
under [General Menu] to call up the existing model.
The Rename feature makes it easy to make a
selection call to a model whose name has already
been set.
The name of the model currently in use is
displayed on the home page. Before flying and
changing the parameter settings, be sure to
determine if the correct model is selected.
When a new model is added, please select [Type
Selecting] under [General Menu] according to the
model used. If a new receiver is used, the receiver's
code operation is also required ([Linkage Setting]-
[Link]
2. Model type selection
Use the [Type Selecting] function under [General
Menu] to select the model type, wing type, and tail
type that match the model airplane.
For example, the left and right azimuth servos
can be selected from the main wing type by
selecting "2 ailerons" and adjusting the two servos
in [Sub-Trim] and [End Point] respectively.
3. The fuselage control part connect
Install the ailerons, elevators, throttles, rudders,
etc. as required by the model aircraft product
specification. For the connection method, refer to
the "Receiver and Servo Connection Example -
Airplane" (P19) and the "Receiver and Servo
Connection Example - Glider" (P20) section.
Note: ET12 transmitters have different channel
assignments depending on the model type, so
please pay special attention (in the [General Menu]
option under General Menu], you can check the
allocation of each channel).
● If the direction of the actual connection is
opposite to the direction you want, you can use
[Reverse Setting] under [General Menu] to adjust
the direction.
● Install the throttle section to ensure that the
carburetor/electronic governor can be fully open or
fully closed.
● Use the [End Point] under [Function] to adjust
the end point and rotation angle of each rudder
surface, and use the [Sub-trim] function and the
[End Point] function to make fine adjustments. In
order to protect the connecting rod, the stroke limit
position can be set in the [Rudder Angle Setting]
function item. [End Point] function item can adjust
the up and down or left and right movement amount
of each rudder surface And limit.
4. Throttle Cut Setting (Airplane)
The [Throttle Cut] function allows us to turn off the
engine by only one switch without affecting the
throttle trim position (after idle adjustment).
* When the [Throttle Cut] function is activated,
the engine flame out position will be fixed. If the
throttle cut switch is not required, use the [ Idle
Down] setting function below.
Please use the [Throttle Cut] function option
under [Model Menu] to set. After the flame out
function is activated and the corresponding switch
is selected, the throttle position will be adjusted
until the carburetor is fully closed. For safety
reasons, the activation position of the throttle lever
position corresponding to the throttle stop function
can be set separately.
5. Idle Down setting (Airplane)
The [Idle Down] function option is located under
[Model Menu]. * When the [Throttle Cut] function is
operated, the [Idle Down] function will not be
activated. Without changing the throttle trim
position, using a switch can reduce the idle speed of
the airplane.
After activating this function and selecting a
switch, you can adjust the desired number of idling
revolutions. For safety reasons, this function is only
activated when the throttle lever is in the lower
position (approximately 1 / 3 of the total stroke).
6. Dual Rate Settings
[Dual Rate] function is to match the feeling of
control and adjust the rudder angle, which makes
the control more convenient. The basic operating
range of the steering gear is set in the [End Point]
function under [General Menu], and the steering
feel is adjusted by the [Dual Rate] ratio function of
the [General Menu]. In addition, after setting the
rudder angle ratio, it can also be switched by the
switch or flight condition, and the flight action can be
used to call up the set rudder angle.
7. Air brake
[Air Brake] function is used when landing, etc.,
when the sliding angle is large but the speed is no
need to be increased. This function can only be
used on models with [General Menu] - [Model
Selecting] and "2 Ailerons" on the wing. * Normally,
the left and right ailerons are simultaneously set to
the upward movement, and the pitch of the nose can
be corrected by the elevator mixing when the
function is started.
8. Flight conditions
The factory default setting assigns only one flight
condition per model. Only one flight condition can
support basic flight without barriers, but if you are in
a competitive situation such as a game, you need
more detailed settings. Through the [Flight
Condition] function in [Model Menu], you can select
the required flight conditions more effectively. It can
also be set for the switch of the condition switch and
the name of the condition. After the flight condition
setting is completed, the switch needs to be
operated, and the condition name displayed on the
interface is confirmed.
