n) "SVC" function: gyro function
The receiver has a built-in gyro sensor. It can be used to intervene in the steering or the throttle function (throttle/brake
servo or speed controller) so that the vehicle does not oversteer.
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
SVC
function is greyed out, as
shown in the right figure.
• If you press the knob (14) briefly, "SVC ON" will flash at the top right of the
display.
•
You can select one of the following functions by turning the knob (14) to the
left or right.
"SVC ON": switching gyro function on/off
When "SVC ON" flashes, briefly press the knob (14). Use the knob (14) to switch the gyro function on ("ON" flashes)
or off ("OFF" flashes). Briefly press the knob (14) to confirm.
If you have enabled the gyro function, "SVC ON" will be displayed later when you exit the setup menu.
"Neu.Cal": calibrating neutral position
When "Neu.Cal" flashes, you can calibrate the neutral position. Release the steering wheel (4) on the transmitter so
that the steering is in the middle position. Make sure that the model is level and steady before proceeding with the
calibration. Now briefly press the knob (14). The calibration will start and last only a few seconds.
Calibration is only possible when the gyro function is enabled.
"Reverse": enabling/disabling the reverse steering setting for the gyro function
When "Reverse" flashes, briefly press the knob (14). You can switch between "NOR" (Normal) and "REV" (Reverse)
by turning the knob (14). This affects the direction of rotation of the steering servo when the gyro sensor detects a
swerving vehicle. Briefly press the knob (14) to confirm.
If set incorrectly, the gyro function will enhance the swerving of the vehicle. The setting must be selected
so that the steering servo is counter-steered.
"St.Gain": setting gain for steering function
When "St.Gain" flashes, briefly press the knob (14). You can now adjust the extent to which the steering function
will be affected by the gyro sensor by turning the knob (14) (the higher the value, the more the steering servo is
counter-steered). Briefly press the knob (14) to confirm.
"Th.Gain": setting gain for throttle function (throttle/brake servo or speed controller)
When "Th.Gain" flashes, briefly press the knob (14). You can now adjust the extent to which the throttle function
(throttle/brake servo or speed controller) will be affected by turning the knob (14) (the higher the value, the greater
the effect). Briefly press the knob (14) to confirm.
The setting prevents the vehicle from swerving when accelerating out of a curve.
The gyro sensor only affects the throttle function (throttle/brake servo or speed controller) for forward travel.
