Futaba 14MZ - Manual (Page 41)

1. Model addition and call
Default setting assigns 1 model to the T14MZ. To
add new models or to call a model already set, use the
Model Select function of the Linkage Menu.
This is convenient when calling a model after
registering the model names in advance. (The data of
up to 30 models can be saved at the transmitter. Data
can also be saved to the accessory Data-Pack.)
The currently called model is displayed at the top
of the screen. Before fl ying and before changing any
settings, always confi rm the model name.
Please be aware that the transmitter will stop
transmitting when you change the model.
When a new model is added, the Model Type Select
screen and Frequency/Modulation mode/Receiver ID
setup screen automatically appear. Change, or check
that they match the type, frequency, and receiver type
of the model used.
2. Model type and swash type selection
When a separate model type is already selected,
select helicopter with the Model Type function of the
Linkage Menu, and then select the swash type matched
to the fuselage.

3. Flight condition addition
The transmitter can install up to eight flight
conditions per model. You can assign all switches
including sticks, switches, trim levers and trim switches
as flight-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 define what switches and/or controls are
used to activate each fl ight condition.
The Condition Select function automatically allocates
the Condition 0 for each model type. Condition 0 is
the default condition, also referred to as Normal, and is
the only one active when a new model type is defi ned.
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.
(General fl ight condition setting example)
● Normal: (Use initial setting conditions/operate
when switch OFF)
Use from engine starting to hovering.
● Idle up 1: (Switch setting example: Operate
at SW-E center)
Use in 540o stall turn, loop, rolling stall turn, and
other maneuvers.
● Idle up 2: (Switch setting example: Operate
at SW-E forward side)
Use in rolls.
● Throttle hold: (Switch setting example:
Operate at SW-G forward side)
Use in auto rotation.
The priority is throttle hold/idle up 2/idle up 1/
normal. Throttle hold has the highest priority.
Add other conditions, as required.
