Delay of positive/negative This item allows you to delay the servo channel‘s travel time between both end points. This can be defined for the positive and for the negative value (each travel direction). For instance, the opening of a landing gear can be slower, than when it retracts. neutral positions as perfectly as possible.
EN computer radio control system Up to 10 different flight modes are available for every single model. Each one of these flight modes can be named differently for instant recognition. Only one of the flight modes can be active at any given time. With a little practice you will discover that creating your flight modes in logical order can prevent confusion in a critical situation. Flight mode control can be assigned to any of the switches, sticks, or knobs of the transmitter. 9.2.
EN computer radio control system 2. Naming Flight Modes Advice: If no flight mode is required, do not change the pre-set configuration. We recommend naming flight modes according to their function, for example: Take Off, Soaring, Autorotation…. Flight mode names/labels can be easily edited at any time. 3. Flight Mode Delays 3 2 The time delay function can help smooth the transition from one flight control state to another.

This settings allows the slave output to be affected by dual rate inputs. All adjustments can be visually inspected right away in the servo monitor page by pressing the “F2 (Servo)” button.
computer radio control system EN The throttle limiter also influences mixes where the throttle acts as the source. The trim function is not influenced by the throttle limiter. If a control device is not assigned, the throttle limiter function is disabled. 9.2.13 Throttle Limiter If you have several flight modes and all of them have specific throttle curves, the Throttle Limiter might help you to get the motor's RPM safely from the lowest to the maximum RPM that is controlled by your throttle curve.
computer radio control system EN 1. Auto-Trim Function Auto-Trim function can be activated using any assigned switch, knob or stick. Once this function has been activated you can trim your model using transmitter gimbals. The direction and speed of the trim adjustment is determined by stick movement. Larger stick movements equal a faster trim response. When the Auto-Trim function is active, the transmitter gimbals do not change their standard response. The transmitter is still in normal operation mode.

The model time runs incrementally during flight (after pressing F(4) Start button on main screen or after starting any timer).
computer radio control system 1. Editing a New Timer a). Timer Name When you add or change the timer name, the name is automatically displayed in that timer’s box on the main desktop. b). Initial Timer Value This is where you can set the starting value for the timer. You can set a negative or positve value for this starting point. c). Target Timer Value Here is where you can set the target value for the timer. This can be set as a positive value or a negative value.
computer radio control system EN 9.4.2 Alarms If you use the Jeti telemetry system, in this menu you can set your alarm thresholds and choose which sound is played in the alarm condition.
