Test Functions
The new Test Function Menu
For owners of our previous ECU, the Manual mode is no longer implemented. Instead, a
new expanded set of test functions are available from the
Test–Functions Menu
. This
menu is selected while pressing the
Select Menu
key, press the ◄ - or ► + key until
the menu is displayed. To test the selected component, press the
Change Value/Item
key. To change the fuel pump or glow plug voltage when testing, while pressing the
Change Value/Item
key, press the ◄ - or ► + key. The following functions are
available ->
•
Run the fuel pump with a programmable voltage. This is principally used to prime
the fuel system.
•
Test the glow plug and/or set the voltage.
•
Test the starting gas valve.
•
Test the fuel valve.
•
EGT offset information.
Turbine Starting / Running
1. Prepare to start by completing the startup checklist (previously described on
page
10
).
2. Briefly hold the model upward, to ensure there is no residual fuel in the turbine.
3. Move the throttle trim lever to idle (maximum) position.
4. If the throttle stick is not at the idle position, the LED’s will blink in a continuous
sequence of yellow to red to green. Bring the throttle stick to the idle position,
changing the LED blink sequence to green to red to yellow, continuously. The
turbine is now ready to start!
5. Advance the throttle stick to its maximum setting and the turbine will start.
6. Once the turbine begins to accelerate, the throttle stick can be returned to idle
position. As soon as the turbine stabilizes at idle speed, the green
OK
LED will
illuminate, indicating that thrust control is now handed over to the pilot. The throttle
stick must be in the idle position for the green
OK
LED to illuminate.
When the throttle stick is set to the maximum position (Step 5 above), the ECU will
begin a fully automatic starting sequence. This starting sequence can be immediately
stopped at anytime by moving the throttle to the
Off
position.
After the start process is initiated, the following occurs:
1. The starting motor spins the turbine rotor up to approximately 2,500-3,500 RPM -
then the starting motor is stopped.
2. Next, the glow plug is switched on and the starting gas valve opened.
3. The speed of the turbine begins to fall slowly, while ignition normally occurs during
this period. Should ignition not occur, the starter will automatically make two more
