Establishing helicopter model type
This "Model type" menu is used to establish the type
of model to be programmed. This also activates all
characteristic mixers, coupling functions, etc. in prep-
aration for subsequent programming of the specified
model type.

Swashplate type
Control of the swashplate will require an appropriate
program variant which corresponds to the number of
servos operating pitch control.
In the meantime this selection is also influenced by
the type of control exercised on swashplate servos.
Since Flybar systems generally do not require trans-
mitter-side swashplate mixers, when such a system
is in use, "1 Servo" is generally to be selected as the
swashplate type, regardless of the actual number of
swashplate servos present.
In this context, be sure the Flybar system
complies with the included adjustment
instructions as otherwise there is a risk
the helicopter will not y.
After selecting the »Swashplate type« line with the
 selection keys of the left or right touch pad, the
entry field will be framed.

Briefly tap the centre SET key of the right touch pad.
The current setting for number of pitch servos will be
displayed in inverse video. Now choose the variant
needed with the selection keys of the right touch pad.
• “1 Servo“
A Flybar system is in use or the swashplate is
tipped with one servo each for roll and pitch-axis.
Pitch control will be affected by one separate
servo.
(Since helicopter models, which are operated
with only 1 pitch servo, neither need any of the
three swashplate servos for pitch, pitch-axis and
roll, like Flybar systems, NOR the transmitter’s
mixer functions for pitch, pitch-axis and roll, the
»Swashplate mixer« menu (page 213) option will
be suppressed in the Multi-function menu.)
• “2 Servo”

Two roll servos will displace the swashplate
axially to affect pitch control; nick control will be
decoupled by a mechanical compensation rocker.
• “3Sv(2Roll)”
Symmetric three-point control of the swashplate
with three, radially offset articulation points, each
offset by 120 °, connected to one pitch-axis servo
(front or rear) and two roll servos (left and right).
All three servos push the swashplate axially to
affect pitch control.
• “3Sv (140°)”

Asymmetrical three-point control of the swashplate
is affected at three articulation points connected to
one nick servo (rear) and two roll servos (front left
and right). All three servos push the swashplate
axially to affect pitch control.
