IMPORTANT – Please Read
Before programming the
POWERPACK / ECU
to learn your transmitter throttle settings, it is
important that you clear your transmitter of all and any
MIX
or
FAILSAFE
program you might
have programmed connected to the throttle channel, since this can interfere with the
operation of the
POWERPACK / ECU
Program your failsafe after you have programmed the
POWERPACK / ECU
to learn your
transmitter throttle settings.
Here are some key items not to forget to check:
·
Your transmitters throttle channel ATV, end points or travel adjustments should be at
100% with no reductions or mixes to it
·
When your trim is down, HDT should read “Trim Low” and 0%
·
When trim is up, HDT should read “Ready” and about 25%
·
When you raise throttle to maximum, HDT should read 100%
·
Always program your failsafe after you program your POWERPACK / ECU and set it
to “ENGINE CUT” Throttle down and Trim Down
·
Check that your failsafe is working properly

8 Transmitter Setup
4.8.1 Transmitter Preparation and Verification.
First unplug the fuel pump/starter battery to prevent accidental starting of the engine.
The transmitter must not have programmed any reduction of throw, trim, slow movement, the
center value or the linearity modified. In case of doubt it is recommended to connect a servo
to verify that the movement is correct from end to end and fast. Once the transmitter has
been verified, connect the
POWERPACK / ECU
and by
means of the key “Menu Up” change to screen 2. With the
trim and stick of the transmitter raised (Full power) the
reading of “Pulse = xxxx” must be between 1900-2200. With
the stick and the trim lowered, the reading must be between
800 and 1200. In the case where readings are inverted, when
using Futaba transmitter for example, it is necessary to utilize
the servo reverse function. If the readings do not arrive at the
described values it means that the transmitter may have
some function of limitation of throw applied. Once the transmitter is verified, the
POWERPACK / ECU
can be programmed.
