• "Pitch min." line
In the helicopter program for the mz-18 HoTT and
mz-24 HoTT transmitters, the "rear" throttle position
is the "Pitch min." position by default.
With this option, which was introduced in fi rmware
version V1.021, the control direction of the pitch con-
trol stick can be easily switched from "Pitch min.
rear" to "Pitch min. front" or vice versa by touching
the REAR respectively the FORWARD button in
the "Pitch min." line:

The inverted control signal affects all

Flight-phase-dependent settings of the pitch curve
If you have created Quick Links in the submenu
"Q.Link", page 168, and have assigned an appropriate
name, it appears at the top right in green font such
as "NORMAL". Activate the corresponding switches if
desired to switch between Quick Links.

Note:
In the graphic of the display, the curve
characteristics are shown directly.
The pitch control curve can be specifi ed by up to 7
points, the so-called support points, along the entire
control stick travel depending on the Quick Link.
At the beginning, fewer support points are required to
set the pitch curve. It is, however, highly recommendable
to start with three support points. These three endpoints,
the two endpoints "Pitch low (L)" = -100% control travel
and "Pitch high (H)" = +100% control travel, as well as a
point to be placed in the control center, describe a linear
characteristic for the pitch curve.
Basic operating steps
• Taste ST OFF
Touch this button with a fi nger or the provided stylus
to switch on and off the graphic and numeric display
of the control stick position.
