MAG
This is the P term for the compass heading hold mode. Once this mode is activated, the compass heading will be held as long as
rudder stick is at neutral. Changing the rudder stick will change the heading set point.
THROTTLE rate
This boxe defines the rate of cancellation of the nominal PID (the one which is used on neutral
ROLL/PITCH stick position) in relation with Throttle stick.
The purpose of this curve is to gain more stability when you are in a situation to use more throttle than
needed to just maintain a lift. This is typically the case in fast translation.
If you are not familiar with this, just keep the default values (0)
How to activate options
Depending on your configuration, you can easily activate/deactivate options via 2 switches on your RC TX.
The 2 switches correspond to (AUX1), typically RX ch5 and, RX channel 6 (AUX2). In Version 2.0 and later,
two additional channels (AUX3 & 4) may also be used if you are using PPM composite receiver (see Other
Neat Stuff section below)
LEVEL is the autolevel feature (require an ACC) which will attempt to hold the board level if no Pitch or Roll
inputs are received…sometime called “stable” mode
BARO tries to keep a constant altitude once activated (require a barometer)
MAG tries to keep a perfect heading direction once activated (require a magnetometer)
CAMSTAB: if activated, the camera’s PITCH&ROLL servo output will counteract the inclination of the multi
(require an ACC + the code activation via #define statement)
CAMSTRIG: if activated, a servo output will trigger repetitively a sequence in which we can define the
duration on the HIGH/LOW position.
ARM: allows arming in addition to via stick (see Stick Table below)
GPS: Not available with this board
PASSTHRU: Bypasses IMU for flying wings
HEADFREE: Heading is stored ar power up from MAG, TX AIL and ELEsticks will move the copter in
direction relative to initial heading no matter what actual heading is. Like CAREFREE mode in other
controllers.
BEEPER: A buzzer can be attached to D8 for low voltage warning. This box enables it. Requires code
options to be set also which are beyond the scope of this guide. Study the source.
To activate a function, you must check the white box at the intersection of the required option (row) and at
the switch state you want to enable (column).
It’s possible to make a complex mix.
If you want to force an option permanently, it’s possible to check all the white boxes, even without a RC
channel connected.
(=> this way, you don’t need a 5 or 6 channel RC receiver)
