ADJUSTMENTS AND FLIGHT TECHNIQUES
DUAL RATE
Dual Rate functions allow the modeler to switch servo travel limits in flight, thus varying
the control sensitivity for different flight conditions or maneuvers.
• Dual Rate functions are available on CH1 (Aileron), CH2 (Elevator), and CH4 (Rudder/Tail Rotor).
• Dual Rate ON (Low Rate) limits can be adjusted from 30% to 100% of full throw.
• If servo travel is reduced by ATV, the D/R ON throw will be 30% to 100% of the limit set by ATV (in
D/R OFF). If AFR is used, the D/R ON limit is unaffected, and will be 30% to 110% of normal (full)
throw.
• Dual Rate ON limits can be adjusted independently in each direction from neutral.
•There are three D/R ON/OFF Switches. Control of the three D/R functions can be assigned to these
switches in any combination the modeler desires, or D/R functions can be switched ON and OFF auto-
matically according to the position of the Throttle/Collective stick.
•The ON/OFF directions of the D/R switches can be reversed using the PARAMETERS program screen
(See page 46).
• In the AUTO D/R mode, the D/R functions can be turned ON and OFF according to the position
(adjustable) of the T/C stick.
Settinq Method
1) Select the EDIT screen, then select the DUAL
RATE screen with the program key.
2) Select the channel to be set with the or
cursor key.
3) Move the cursor to the position with the
or cursor key and press the or
program key to activate or deactivate the
D/R function for that channel.
4) When the key is pressed, "ON"or "OFF"
will be displayed in the "INH" position, de-
pending upon the position of the pertinent
D/R ON/OFF Switch.
5) Using the and cursor keys, move the
, or program key.
The D/R ON/OFF Switches are designated by
numbers as follows:
1 ... Aileron D/R
As designated on the
transmitter front.
2 ... Elevator D/R
3... Rudder D/R
Each switch may be used to control one, two, or
all three D/R functions as desired.
7) D/R may also be switched ON and OFF in
conjunction with other functions (Idle-up,
etc.) using the COMBI SW function of the
PARAMETER program screen (See page 46).
cursor to the L/D or R/U position and set
the desired D/R ON throw with the
or
program keys. Pressing the program
key will returen the set limit to 100%.
6) Select the desired ON/OFF Switch for each
D/R function by moving the cursor to the
"sw" position with the
key and or
selecting Switch No. 1, 2, or 3 with the
