Futaba 18MZ 2.4GHz - Manual (Page 60)

60 <Model Basic Setting Procedure>
● Swash plate correction (Except H-1 mode)
Operation of the swash plate near the hovering
point can be corrected by swash AFR function
correction mixing. Use this when pitch, aileron,
and elevator operation causes the swash plate to
deviate from the normal direction.
(Call the Swash setup→Swash details screen.)
Pitch slow side and high side linkage correction is
also possible. Adjust so that pitch operation causes
the swash plate to move up and down in the
horizontal state.
5. Throttle curve setting
This function adjusts the pitch operation curve
in relation to the movement of the throttle stick for
each condition.
(17 points curve)
The pitch curve can be freely selected from linear
operation curve to smooth curve, and adjusted to
match the curve you want by means of the T18MZ’s
powerful Curve Edit Function (6 types of curves can
be selected). Up to 17 points can be set for linear
or curve types. However, when using the 3 points
or 5 points specified to create a curve, a simple and
smooth curve can be created by selecting the curve
type and reducing the number of input points to 3
or 5, and then entering the specified value at the
corresponding points that you created.
<Setting example>
Call the throttle curve of each condition with the
condition select switch.
●Normal curve adjustment
Normal curve uses Normal (Linear) type and creates
a basic pitch curve centered near hovering. This
curve is adjusted together with the Throttle Curve
(Normal) so that the engine speed is constant and
up/down control is easiest.
●Idle up curve adjustment
The high side pitch curve sets the maximum pitch
regardless of the engine load. The low side pitch
curve creates a curve matched for aerobatics
(loop, roll, 3D, etc.).
Note: When the curve type is changed, the data is reset.
4. Fuselage linkage
Connect the throttle rudder, ailerons, elevators,
pitch, and other rudder linkages in accordance with
the kit instruction manual. For a description of
the connection method, see "Receiver and Servos
Connection".
*The channel assignment of the T18MZ is different from
that of our existing systems. (The channel assigned to
each function can be checked at the Function menu of the
Linkage Menu.)
● When the direction of the linkage is reversed,
use the Reverse function of the Linkage
Menu. Also use the swash AFR function in any
swash set up 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 becomes full open at full trim
throttle cut is possible.
● Adjust the neutral position andrudder angle
at the linkage side and fine tune with the
Sub-Trim function and End Point function
(rudder angle adjustment). To protect the
linkage, a limit position can also be set with
the End Point function.
