In addition to the two dual-axis stick units for the control
functions 1 to 4, the
mx
-16iFS is fi tted as standard with
a range of supplementary controls:
Two INC / DEC buttons: CTRL 5 and 6 (“transmitter •
controls 5 … 6”)
One three-position switch: SW 6/7 (assigned to “ctrl8”
•
in this menu)
One rotary proportional knob: CTRL 7 (“transmitter
•
control 7”)
One push-button: SW 4 / PB 8 (“SW 4” or “SW 8”)
•
Three two-position switches: SW 1 to SW 3 (“SW 1 •
… 3”)
The two dual-axis stick units directly affect servos
connected to receiver outputs 1 … 4 and 6 (assuming
that you have set up a newly initialised model memory
with the model type “Helicopter”). In contrast, the “sup-
plementary” transmitter controls listed above are inactive
when the transmitter is in its default state (as delivered).
The exception is the rotary proportional knob CTRL 7
(throttle limiter), which acts upon servo 6 by default.
As already mentioned on page 14, this means that the
transmitter in its basic form only controls servos con-
nected to receiver outputs 1 … 4 using the primary
sticks. Any servos connected to receiver sockets 5, 7
and 8 simply stay at their centre point when you operate
the associated transmitter controls.
This may seem rather inconvenient at fi rst sight, but
it is the only way to ensure that you can select any of
the “supplementary” transmitter controls for any task
you like, and that you are not required deliberately to
“program away” the transmitter controls which are not
required for a particular model.
Unless it is inactive, any superfl uous transmitter
control will have an effect on your model if you
operate it by mistake, i. e. unless you have assigned
‘no function’ to it.
That is why you can select these “supplementary” trans-
mitter controls with complete freedom in the “Transmitter
control settings” menu, and assign them to any function
input (see page 32) you like, as this method ensures
that the transmitter meets your own requirements
exactly. This also means that each of these transmitter
controls can be set to operate several function inputs si-
multaneously. For example, the same toggle switch SW
X which you assign to an input in this menu, can also be
assigned as the On / OFF switch controlling the “clocks”
in the »
base sett. « menu.
Notes:
The current positions of the INC / DEC buttons •
(CTRL 5 + 6) assigned to inputs 5 … 8 are stored
separately for each memory, i. e. the settings are not
lost when you change fl ight phases or switch to a dif-
ferent model.
Input 6 must always be left “empty” for helicopter ap-
•
plications; for more details see the section entitled
“Throttle” on page 62.
The basic procedure
Select the appropriate input I5, (gas), gyr, I8 or Lim 1.
(Limit) with the rotary cylinder pressed in.
Use the rotary cylinder to select
2. SEL , SYM or ASY
so that you can carry out the adjustments you wish
to make.
Press the rotary cylinder: the input fi eld you want to

modify is now highlighted.
Operate the transmitter control you wish to use, and
4.
set the desired value using the rotary cylinder.
Press the rotary cylinder to conclude the input proc-

Column 2 “Assigning transmitter controls and

Select one of the inputs with the rotary cylinder held
pressed in.
Use the rotary cylinder to select
SEL , or (if SEL is
already highlighted), press the rotary cylinder briefl y to

Move the appropriate transmitter control (CTRL 5 to 7), or
operate the selected switch (SW 1 to 4, 6/7, 8). Note that
the transmitter needs some “beeps” to detect the two INC
/ DEC buttons (CTRL 5 and 6) and the rotary proportional
control, i. e. they need to be operated for longer than the
other controls. If the travel is not suffi cient for the transmit-
ter to detect it, move the control in the opposite direction.
If you assign one of the two-position switches, then this
control channel works like an On / Off switch. It is then
possible to switch to and fro between two end-point val-
ues using this simple switch, e. g. motor ON / OFF. The
three-position switch SW 6/7, which you will fi nd in the
