<Model Basic Setting Procedure>

5. Throttle/Pitch curve setting

This function adjusts the throttle or pitch

operation curve in relation to the movement of the

throttle stick for each condition.

<Throttle curve setting example>

Activate the throttle curve of each condition with

the condition select switch.

●Normal curve adjustment

Normal curve creates a basic throttle curve

centered near hovering. This curve is adjusted

together with the pitch curve (Normal) so that the

engine speed is constant and up/down control is

easiest.

●Idle up curve adjustment

The low side Throttle curve creates a curve

matched for aerobatics (loop, roll, 3D, etc.).

●Throttle hold curve adjustment

The curve is not used when performing auto rotation

dives.
Confirm that the rate of the slowest position (0%) of
the stick is 0% (initial setting).

<Example of pitch curve setting>

Activate the pitch curve of each condition with

the condition select switch.

●Pitch curve (Normal)

Make the pitch at hovering approximately +5º~6º.
Set the pitch at hovering with the stick position at

the 50% point as the standard.

*Stability at hovering may be connected to the throttle curve.

Adjustment is easy by using the hovering throttle function

and hovering pitch function together.

●Pitch curve (Idle up 1)

The idle up 1 pitch curve function creates a curve

matched to airborne flight.
Set to -7º~+12º as standard.

●Pitch curve (Idle up 2)

The high side pitch setting is less than idle up 1.
The standard is +8º.

●Pitch curve (Hold)

At auto rotation, use the maximum pitch at both

the high and low sides.
[Pitch angle setting example]
Throttle hold: -7º~+12º

4. Servo Connection

Connect the throttle rudder, aileron, elevator,

pitch, and other servos in accordance with the

kit instruction manual. For a description of the

connection method, see "Receiver and Servos

Connection".

Note: The channel assigned to each function

can be checked at the Function menu of the

Linkage Menu.

● If the direction of operation of the servo

is incorrect, use the Reverse function of

the Linkage Menu. Also use the swash AFR

function in other than the H-1 mode.

● Adjust the direction of operation of the gyro.

(Gyro side function)

● Connect the throttle linkage so that the

carburetor can fully close at full trim throttle

cut.

● Adjust the neutral position at the linkage side

and fine tune with the Sub-Trim function and

End Point function. To protect the linkage,

a limit position can also be set with the End

Point function.

● Swash plate correction (Except H-1 mode)

*If any interactions are noticed, for a description of the

linkage correction function, please refer to the SWASH

function, p.73.
