Phase assignment
Setting up flight phases
This option is available on both transmit-
ter types.
Use the selection keys of the left or right
four-way button to scroll to the »Phase as-
signment« menu option in the Multi-function menu:
Phase settings

Note:
A phase name appears to the right of the
phase number at the bottom right of the
display only if you have assigned the name
beforehand on the »Phase settings« menu.
In the »Phase settings« menu, described above
separately for fixed-wing and helicopter models,
you will have set up names for your phases. On this
menu – which is identical for both model types – you
must now specify the switches or switch combinations
that you want to use to trigger each phase. One excep-
tion for helicopter menu: one of the two auto-rotation
switches must be set on the menu »Basic settings,
model« (page 95).
Please note the following priorities:
• If no flight phase switches nor these names have
been assigned in this menu, the model is in flight
phase “1”. Accordingly, by the time you start pro-
gramming flight phases, you should therefore have
already given this flight phase the phase name
“Normal”.
• Independent of the phases with allocated switch
settings made in this menu, the autorotation phase
only present for the “Helicopter” model type and to
be assigned a switch in the »Basic settings, mod-
el« menu (page 88) always (!) takes precedence.
Accordingly, as soon as the auto-rotation switch
in question is activated, the following warning ap-
pears:

• Phase switch “A” is given priority over all subse-
quent switch positions, from “B” to “F”
• Phase switch “B” is given priority over all subse-
quent switch positions, from “C” to “F”
• 3-way switches should always be assigned from
the middle position.
Therefore use switch “A” and/or switch “B” only if you
wish to change from any other flight phase – apart from
the helicopter’s autorotation phase – directly into the
phase that is assigned to this switch.
Programming ight phase switches
Once you have configured your desired switch position,
“A” to “F”, using the selection keys on the left or right
four-way button, a switch (whether a “normal” switch or
an expanded switch) is then assigned as described in
the section “Physical control, switch and control switch
assignments” on page 60.
The order in which assignment is made is irrelevant:
you must ensure only that you assign what are, for you,
the “correct” switches. (In the helicopter program, for
example, you should also take care to ensure you do
not use this menu to re-assign any auto-rotation switch
already assigned on the »Basic settings, model«
menu.)

Assigning ight phases to switch positions
Now that names have been assigned to the flight
phases (1 … max. 6) in the »Phase settings« menu
and also programmed switches in this menu, but …
at the bottom right of the display screen, you only see
<1Normal > – regardless of the positions the switches
are in!?
Use the selection keys on the left or right four-way but-
ton to move the marker frame down and to the right
and then briefly tap the centre SET key of the right
four-way button:
