Note: This menu item will not be left automatically after 4 minutes, so you have plenty of time to adjust
the mechanical setup.
You can switch back and forth between the servos as often as you need, and also switch back to the
zero position for reference anytime. The already adjusted servo centers will not be lost doing this.
Note that only the adjusted servo positions are important and get stored. Those which have been set
with the corresponding Status-LED colors. The Status-LED “o” only serves for reference and to plug the servo
horns in the best position. For instance, if you install or replace the servos in the model.
G Adjusting the swashplate servo centering
When entering setup menu point G connect all swashplate servos as described in chapter 3.3. They now
will be running to their zero position (1520 µs) what we call reference position here when the Status-LED is
o.
This reference position is used to mount the servo horns on the servos so that they form as much as possible
a 90 degrees angle to the linkage rod. Usually this will not work out perfectly depending on the servo‘s gear
train and the servo horn, therefore you can adjust electronically every single servo in the next steps. Later,
you can come back anytime to this reference position (when the Status-LED is o) for checking the
mechanical setup..
If you move the tail stick to a single direction once, you can select one servo and change its center position
by moving the elevator stick back and forth. Every color of the Status-LED is corresponding to a specic
servo channel that is indicating its selection by a short up and down move.
