38 <Model Basic Setting Procedure>
5. Idle down setting (Airplane)
The idling speed can be lowered with one touch
by a switch without changing the throttle trim
position. Perform this setting with the Idle Down
function of the Linkage Menu. After activating the
Idle Down function and selecting the switch, adjust
the idle down speed. For safety, the idle down
function acts only when the throttle stick is in the
lowest part of its throw.
*While the Throttle Cut function is in operation, the Idle
Down function does not work.
6. D/R function
D/R function is used to adjust the throw and
operation curve of the stick functions (aileron,
elevator, rudder and throttle) for each switch
position (airplane) or each flight condition (glider).
This is normally used after the modeler has defined
the maximum throw directions in the End Point
settings.
(Airplane)
(Glider)
7. Airbrake (Airplane)
This function is used when an airbrake is
necessary when taking off or diving, etc. Please
note: this menu item is only available under certain
wing configurations. For example, it will not appear
if a single aileron wing type has been selected.
The pre-set elevator and flap offset amount can
be activated by a switch.
The offset amount of the aileron, elevator, and
flap servos can be adjusted as needed. Also the
speed of the aileron, elevator, and flap servos can
be adjusted. You can also set the Auto Mode, which
will link Airbrake to a stick, switch, or dial. A
separate stick switch or dial can also be set as the
ON/OFF switch.
8. Addition of flight conditions (Glider)
The Condition Select function automatically
allocates the normal condition (NORMAL) for
each model. NORMAL is the default condition and
is the only one active when a new model type is
defined.
If you want to add flight conditions, please refer
to a description of the CONDITION function, p.80.
*The NORMAL is always on, and remains on until other
conditions are activated by switches, stick positions, etc.
Please refer to the section entitled Switch Selection Method
for additional information on how to do so.
*It is possible to customize the activation of the flight
conditions.
*The Condition Delay can be programmed for each channel.
The Condition Delay is used to change the servo throw
smoothly when switching conditions.
