MODEL MENU (AIRPLANE/GLIDER FUNCTIONS)

These functions usable when airplane, glider,

or EP glider model type is selected are displayed
in this Model Menu functions section. First use
the Model Type function of the Linkage Menu
to preset the model type, wing type, and tail type
matched to the fuselage used. Later setting resets
the data set by mixing function, etc.

These functions can be set for each flight

condition, as required. When you want to use
the system by switching the settings for each
condition by switch or stick position, use the

(Up to 8 conditions can be used)

Note: The FX-40 is designed so that the airplane and
glider (including EP glider) model types can handle
aircrafts of the same wing type.
The functions common to airplanes and gliders,
except some functions, summarized without regard
to the model type.
The setting items are different, depending on the
number of servos, etc. according to the wing type
used. However, reread them. The setup screens in
the instruction manual are typical examples.
