ESC THROTTLE CALIBRATION
In order to map the full range of the ESC output to your throttle stick motion you will have to preform an ESC throttle calibration. NOTE: Execute
ESC throttle calibration with the propeller and spinner removed.
1. Power on your transmitter, DISABLE any throttle hold or throttle kill switches, completely lower the throttle trim and set the stick to full
throttle.
2. Connect the flight pack to your QQ Yak 55 10E Super PNP.
3. Listen for the tones coming from the ESC through the motor, after about 2 seconds you should hear two tones.
4. Pull your throttle stick back to idle.
5. Listen for the ESC arming tones from the motor.
The ESC throttle range has now been properly calibrated, and is stored in the ESC's memory until it is calibrated again. You can repeat this process
as many times as necessary.
CONNECTING BATTERY/ARMING ESC
Observe the following procedures to safely power up your model
after it has been bound. Ensure propeller is removed unless
this sequence is followed to power up before flight.
1. Turn on the transmitter. Lower the throttle stick AND
throttle trim to their lowest settings. Be sure to wait for your
transmitter to indicate it the radio signal is being broadcast
before proceeding
If a battery is connected to the ESC with the throttle fully
open on the transmitter, the ESC will enter programming
mode. If this occurs, simply disconnect the battery, lower the
throttle and reconnect the battery.
2. Ensure the aileron, elevator and rudder gimbals are centered.
3. With the airplane on a solid surface, connect the battery to
the ESC and wait. The ESC will make the motor emit a series
of audible tones during its initialization process.
4. The ESC will make the motor emit a short, final tone
sequence indicating that the ESC is now armed and that the
motor will spin in response to throttle stick movement.
WARNING
When making adjustments to linkages, transmitter
settings, or the Aura 8 flight control system, remove the
propeller to guard against accidental spool up.
WARNING
Hold aircraft securely when connecting the battery before flight.
Always ensure that the propeller is clear of any and all objects as
they may become entangled.
CAUTION
Always connect the battery when the throttle stick and throttle trim
are in the idle/cut-off position.
Aura 8 Auto-Detect
Once your receiver is bound, powered, and connected to the Aura, the Aura will begin the Auto-Detect process to learn what type of receiver you
are using and set itself up for that specific system. Auto-Detect is indicated by a series of sweeping LEDs of various colors. After Auto-Detect is
completed, verify that Aura is on and receiving data from your receiver by looking at the LEDs on the Aura.
Ready-To-Fly:
Solid Orange LED: Aura On and Calibrated
Solid Green LED: Aura receiving Valid receiver data
Possible Errors:
Flashing Orange LED: Aura Moved During Power Up
No Green LED: Aura NOT receiving receiver data
