6. Helicopter Functions
6.1 Pitch Curve
The pitch curve function is for programing the response of the helicopters blades collective pitch, which
controls the amount of lift the helicopter has. This functions output is shown on the graph, with points
along the bottom (L,1,2,3,H), and collective pitch up the side (0-100%). When the throttle stick is moved
its position will be shown in real time.
Setup:

2. Use the "UP" and "DOWN" keys to change the percentage (All changes are shown in real time in the
graph)
3. To return to default settings press and hold the "OK" key for 3 seconds, press and hold the "CANCEL"
