● Stick Tension: Silver screws on the back of each gimbal are
used to adjust the stick tension, as shown at left. Turn the
screw clockwise to make stick tension more  rm. Turn the
screw counter-clockwise to make stick tension more light.
● Throttle Ratchet: A silver ratchet bar is mounted across
the throttle gimbal. For airplane use, a more  rm ratchet
feel might be desired for the throttle. In this case, turn the
adjustment screw clockwise. For helicopter use, less of a
ratchet feel might be desired. Turn this adjustment screw
counter-clockwise to achieve the desired feel.
DIGITAL STICK TRIMS
The trim controls for the four main channels are digital. Holding
the trim lever will cause the servo output to move repeatedly.
Trim positions are visible on the LCD’s home screen, and stored
into that respective memory. Changing the model memory will
also cause trim settings to change accordingly.
For aircraft with glow engines, the precise position of the trim
lever is helpful when determining the engine’s preferred idle
point. When the main throttle stick is above 50% full throttle,
it will not be possible to trim the throttle servo – even though
the indicator on the LCD will move.
The amount of servo movement for each increment of a digital
trim can be adjusted as desired, as explained in the TRIM
SETTING section on page 18.
OTHER CONTROLS
Each control can be assigned to control one of a variety of functions as desired and
described throughout this manual. See page 4 for the location of all switches, which are
also marked on the Tx by letter. The factory default switch assignments are as follows:
ANTENNA
The strongest signals are emitted at a 45 degree angle from the sides of the antenna.
Rotate and fold the antenna so that it’s not pointing directly towards the model during
 ight. Do not grab the antenna during operation as it may affect radio signal quality.
