To set up the Optic Sport to fly a particular model, you need to
get into the radio's second programming menu: the model setup
menu. In this menu you can program specific control functions;
set servo throw direction; and set the values of servo travel,
exponential rates and dual rates for the particular model you
selected earlier in the initial setup menu.
Go ahead and switch the transmitter on-you are now in the
standard operating screen.
In the upper left-hand corner it will say "ACRO" and to the right
there will be a large number telling you the state of the battery
voltage (such as 7.2 v) and a smaller single-digit number
indicating the model slot the radio is currently opened to.
There will also be a little black box at the bottom of the screen
with the symbol "NOR". This indicates that the system is
currently in the "normal" flight condition mode. Later, we will
show you how to activate the flight condition modes-and it is
here on the screen where you will be told which mode is
currently active.
Now push down both EDIT buttons at the same time.
The following menu items will appear as you scroll down the list
by pushing down the right-hand EDIT button:

Tip
When programming a model for the first time, start with
setting servo direction and then activate any mix's needed
like Flaperon, Elevon or Aileron/Rudder.
Next, progress through adjusting subtrim and setting end
point travel of each servo; then set exponential and dual
rate values.
