IR Sensor
In this menu you configure the IR sensor (infrared) orientation used to stabilize the plane. The
cross of IR sensors can be placed on the plane in 16 different positions. Depending on whether you
place it right or cross, and the particular sensor to be used on each axis determines the value to be
taken by each inverter. Optionally, you can use an additional sensor for the Z axis, which allows one
hand to eliminate the need for constant calibration of the sensor, and in the other knowing if the plane
is flying upright or inverted.
•
Exit: Return to previous menu.
•
Pitch REV: Reverse elevator (Pitch) sensor polarity.
•
Roll REV: Reverse aileron (Roll) sensor polarity.
•
Cross Sensor: Tell it's IR sensor it's on cross position.
•
Cross REV: Interchange X-Y axis.
•
Sensor: Tell if we are using standard IR sensor (X-Y), or also optional vertical IR sensor (Z).
•
X Off: X sensor offset. Normal value will be around 1.66.
•
Y Off: Y sensor offset. Normal value will be around 1.66.
•
IR MAX: Maximum value that temperature difference between ground and sky will take. Will
be show only if you are using Z sensor.
•
Z Off: Z sensor offset. Normal value will be around 1.66.. Will be show only if you are using Z
sensor.
