4. Throttle cut setting

Throttle cut can be performed with one touch by a

switch without changing the throttle trim position.

Set throttle cut with the Throttle Cut function of

the Linkage Menu. After activating the throttle cut
function and selecting the switch, adjust the throttle

safety, the throttle cut function operates the throttle
stick in the 1/3 or less (slow side) position.

5. Idle down setting

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 1/3 or les (slow side) position.

*While the Throttle Cut function is in operation, the Idle

Down function does not work.

6. AFR (D/R)

AFR function is used to adjust the throw and

operation curve of the stick, lever, and switch functions
(CH1 to CH12, and V1 to V4) for each fl ight condition.
This is normally used after End Point (ATV) has
defined the maximum throw directions (End Point
acts on ALL flight condition settings). When mixing
is applied from one channel to another channel, both
channels can be adjusted at the same time by adjusting
the operation rate through the AFR function.

7. Airbrake

This function is used when an air brake is necessary

when taking off or diving, etc.

The preset elevators and flaps (camber flap, brake

fl ap) offset amount can be activated by a switch.

The offset amount of the aileron, elevator, and fl ap

servos can be adjusted as needed. Also the speed of the
aileron, elevator, and fl ap servos can be adjusted. (IN
side/OUT side) A delay can be set for each condition,
and a Cut switch which will turn OFF the delay can
be chosen. Trim amounts can be fi ne-tuned by setting
a VR 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 fl ight conditions

The transmitter can install up to eight fl ight conditions

per model. You can assign all switches including sticks,
switches, trim levers and trim switches as fl ight-condition
selection switches. You can also add delayed mixing
to these functions in order to avoid sudden changes.
Moreover, you can set priority order for fl ight conditions
when you set more than one condition. In addition, you
can copy conditions and/or change names of conditions.
This command may also be used to defi ne what switches
and/or controls are used to activate each fl ight condition.

The Condition Select function automatically allocates the

Condition 1 for each model type. Condition 1 is the default
condition, also referred to as Normal, and is the only one active
when a new model type is defined. This condition is always on,
and remains on until other conditions are activated by switches.

The Condition Delay can be programmed for each

channel. The Condition Delay is used to change the
servo throw smoothly when switching conditions.

*When a new condition is added, "Condition1" data is

automatically copied.

*Select the condition switch and set the new condition data in the

switch ON state. However, if the group mode (Gr.) was selected in
advance, the same data will be input at all the conditions. Select the
single mode (Sngl) and adjust the condition you want to change.

9. When tailless wing model selected
