If you have trouble reading the text, try changing the black level, or changing the colors of the text, as described
below.

To change color settings, select the “Color Setup” menu. You can change the color brightness, intensity, and
hue in this menu. Also, you can select which colors to use for text and graphics.

for the highlight of each.

display. Examples: RSSI, motor battery voltage.

Graphics and Indicators– these are displayed in several different places on the screen. Examples:
altitude and airspeed ladders, compass.

information about your main flight pack, which must be connected
to the current sensor for these readouts to be valid.
