h) "D/R" function: dual rate setting
You can use this function to set the servo travel for channel 1 (steering servo) and channel 2 (throttle/brake servo or
speed controller).
For example, it can be used to limit the maximum steering angle, which makes it easier to steer the vehicle when
driving faster, as it reacts more sensitively.
The function can also be used to limit the maximum speed of a vehicle for a beginner. If an electronic speed controller
is connected to channel 2, a limitation to 50% means that only 50% of the motor power is available despite full
deflection on the throttle/brake lever.
The setting affects both sides of the servo travel.
If the value for channel 1 (steering servo) is reduced too much, the turning circle will increase greatly. If the
value for channel 2 is reduced (throttle/brake servo or speed controller) too much, the vehicle may stop
moving.
Proceed as follows:
• If you press the knob (14) briefly, the
MODEL
function will be greyed out.
•
Turn the knob (14) to the left or right until the
D/R
function is greyed out, as
shown in the right figure.
• If you press the knob (14) briefly, the channel number 1 will flash at the bottom
of the display.
•
You can select the channel number (1 – 2) and change the desired dual rate
setting by turning the knob (14) to the left or right.
"ST" (= "steering") also flashes for channel 1.
"TH" (= "throttle") also flashes for channel 2.
Channels 3 – 6 have no dual rate setting.
• If you press the knob (14) briefly, the current setting value will flash at the bottom right of the display.
•
To change the value, turn the knob (14).
• If you press the knob (14) briefly, the indication will stop flashing. The current setting is saved.
If desired, you can now select another function to be changed by turning the knob (14).
To exit the setup menu instead, briefly press the "BACK" button (13). The transmitter will emit a short beep,
and the greyed out field will disappear from functions at the top of the display. The transmitter is back in its
normal mode.
