key (“ON” should appear flashing in the
display).
Connect the right aileron servo to receiver
CH1 and the left aileron servo to receiver
CH6.
Note that you can get differential by adjusting
the up and down motion of the two servos in
the
FLPR
menu. Now we’ll set the servo throw
directions.
6. Now we’ll check that each servo moves the
proper direction, and we’ll use the Reversing
function (
REV
, p. 27) if they don’t.

We’ll start by setting the right aileron servo
direction. This is channel 1, and the ‘
1
’
should be flashing for this command. When
you move the right-hand stick to the right, the
aileron on the right wing should move
upwards, and the aileron on the left should
move downward. Check that the right aileron
moves the correct way!
If it does not, activate the opposite direction
for the aileron servo by pressing the
DATA
INPUT
keys: the PLUS (+) key switches from
Reversed to Normal, and the MINUS (–) key
switches from Normal to Reversed. In the
display, ‘
N
’ for Normal is chosen when the
little triangle is
above
the channel number,
and ‘
R
’ for Reversed is chosen when the little
triangle is below the channel number. Move
the right-hand stick again and verify the right
aileron moves the right directions. The
display shows Channel 1 reversed.
7. Next we’ll set the direction of the elevator
servo, channel 2. When you move the right-
hand stick towards the BOTTOM of the
transmitter, the elevator should move up.
Check to make sure it moves the proper
direction! (More planes are crashed due to
reversed controls than for any other reason.)
If the elevator control moves the wrong
direction, move over to Channel 2 by pressing
the
CURSOR
key. Now the ‘
2
’ should be
flashing in the display. Activate the opposite
direction for the elevator servo by pressing the
Minus (–)
DATA INPUT
key. Move the right-
hand stick up-and-down again and verify the
elevator moves the right direction.
Now we’ll set the direction of the throttle
servo. When you move the left-hand stick
towards the BOTTOM of the transmitter, the
throttle should close, meaning that the hole in
the carburetor should close. Check to make
sure that the throttle lever on the engine
moves the proper direction!
If the throttle servo moves the wrong
direction, activate the opposite direction for
the throttle servo by pressing the
CURSOR
key. Now the ‘
3
’ should be flashing in the
display. Activate the opposite direction for
