HOVERING ADJUSTMENTS (HOV-THR and HOV-PIT):
Hovering throttle and hovering pitch are fine-tuning adjustments for the throttle and collective pitch curves individually,
affecting performance only around the center point and only in the normal condition. They allow in-flight tweaking of the
curves for ideal setup.
Adjustability:
Rotor speed changes caused by temp., humidity, altitude or other changes in flying conditions are easily accommodated.
Both adjustments may be inhibited if not desired.
Both adjustments may also be set to NULL, temporarily turning off the knob but maintaining the last memorized setting.
Adjustments may be memorized and then the knobs returned to center point to use that amount of adjustment. Allows
easy use of the trimming knobs for multiple models. (Note that when memorization is repeated with the knob offset
from center, the trim value accumulates.)
Adjustments are quickly reset to the initial value by turning the dial until the trim reads 0%, memorizing, then
returning the knob to its center position.
Note that all functions, including these, assume the model hovers at half stick.

Fine-tune hovering with the hovering
adjustments. Remember these affect
only the hovering (normal) condition.
Adjust throttle and collective pitch
curves until model hovers nicely. In
flight, adjust collective pitch and
throttle curves near hover point
independently with HOV-THR and HOV-
PIT knobs.
Store new settings after flight.
Where next?
Open the HOV-THR function.
Optional: change which knob adjusts
each hovering curve. NULL locks in
curve in last stored position.
Store the current dial settings prior to
selecting another model.
Close.
Open the HOV-PIT function.
Store the current dial settings prior to
selecting another model.
