C. Servo Reversing
- The Zebra 3 FM transmitter is equipped with servo reversing on CH1, CH2.
- If you need to change travel direction of rotation, open the battery case and pull the
shunt switch there should be a picture of how to do this and put it to the opposite side again.
D. Mixing (Aero version only)
- The Zebra 3 FM Aero transmitters is equipped with a switch that will mix CH1 and
CH2 for Elevon /V-tail aircraft, or common flying wing type aircraft.
-Put the shunt switch into left side(ch1,2)
-If you don't need mixing, leave shunt switch in right side
E. Trim Levers
- The trim levers associated with each control stick are used to correct or (trim-out) the tracking of the aircraft.
- Make sure that the trims will move the surface past neutral when moved to their extremes.
This will assure you have adequate trim control.
- After your plane's first test flight, note the positions of the control surfaces that required trim.
Next, center the trims and turn the receiver off. Now adjust the control linkage on the plane so the
surfaces are in the same position before the trim levers were re-centered.
- Turn on the radio and receiver and recheck the control surfaces to ensure that all
the corrections were applied in the proper direction.
F. Reading the LED Battery Indicator
- There is one indicator light on the face of the radio marked High (solid glowing LED) and Low (blinking LED).
- These relate to the condition of your transmitter battery. Please pay attention to these LEDs and
stop flying when the LED light is blinking.
