6 Configuring the MicroVector

6.1 Configuration Overview

The MicroVector can be completely configured using either the onscreen (stick) menus, the optional InfoPanel

display, or the Vector Windows Software (the software). At a high level, configuration consists of these steps:

 Configuring your radio to work with the MicroVector

 Teaching the MicroVector about your radio’s serial channel mapping, if you are using the satellite,

SPPM or S.BUS™ receiver protocol

 Selecting the airframe type (airframe type must be confirmed with Mode switch after rebooting)

 Teaching the MicroVector about your receiver connections, radio stick directions and throws

 Rezeroing gyros, and recording flat level mounting

 Programming the Mode/Submode switches for selecting the desired flight modes

 Configuring the flight controller/stabilizer

 Tuning, as needed. See section 8.1 - ‘Getting the Most out of your High Performance Mini Quad’ for

Mini Quad tuning.

 Optional: Configuring Return to Home and other Safety settings

 Optional: Configuring the OSD to display what you want to see

 Optional: Configuring and calibrating the compass

 Optional: Configuring the EagleEyes™ FPV Station, if used

6.2 Using the Automatic On-screen Setup Wizards

After you have set up your hardware correctly, the on-screen setup wizards should automatically run, under

these conditions:

 You have not configured the MicroVector before, or you’ve done a factory reset

 You are using a serial receiver mode (satellite, SPPM, or S.BUS

)

 Your radio is turned on and bound to your receiver

If the above are true, when you power up the MicroVector

(without USB connected) the following onscreen setup steps

should automatically start:

 The “Serial Rx Input Learn Wizard” should start, during

which the MicroVector learns how you have your serial

radio channels mapped

 Next, the Airframe type selection menu should

automatically run

 Finally, the “Receiver Analysis Wizard” should run

automatically

Each of the above steps is documented later in the manual.
