Configuration Part 1: calibrating the servos
Configuration of your model is in two parts: servo calibration, followed by mixer adjustment. This section is
concerned with calibration. The goals of servo calibration are:
(a) Achieve a symmetrical setup at the servo level
(b) Maximise control surface movements
(c) Linearise control surface responses.
All the adjustments in this section are made in CAL mode.
Correct calibration is essential for diff to work correctly, and for the flaps and ailerons to track precisely.
4.1
Set servo rotation
The first task is to set the direction of rotation of the servos:
Switch on the transmitter (do not power up the receiver yet)
Enter CAL mode. The tx will cheep every 3 seconds.
Set switch SA to
middle
Open the
OUTPUTS
menu
Power up the receiver
The table below shows the direction of each control surface in
CAL mode.
Use it to set the correct direction for
channels 1-6.
Pay particular attention to the notes regarding aileron and elevator!
