The timer in the base screen now starts with move-
ment of the C1 stick toward full throttle and stops if
you pull the C1 stick back over the switching point.
Example 1 of the preceding pages
If you have decided to continue with the model pro-
gramming described on the previous pages in Exam-
ple 1 on page 276, first switch to the menu …
»Control switch« (page 146)
… and select the line of a control switch which has
not been assigned yet with the selection keys. After
activation of the control assignment with a brief tap
on the centre SET key of the right touch pad, the fol-
lowing window will appear:

Now simply move the respective proportional control,
e. g. the left side proportional rotary control from its
motor "OFF" position toward the motor "ON" direction.
Thereafter, change to the column above STO by us-
ing the appropriate selection key, move the selected
control near its motor "OFF" position then set the
switch-point at the selected position with a brief tap
on the centre SET key of the right touch pad. The
switch status is shown to the right of the control num-
ber:

Note:
Do not, however, set a switching point at a
transmitter control’s travel end-point, since
this makes reliable switching impossible.
C1 used in the example here should be "closed"
in the "full throttle" direction and "open" below the
switching point.
Now switch to the menu …
»Timers (in general)« (page 164)
… and select the line "Top" with the selection keys.
This is the standard line assigned to the stopwatch.
In this line, move the marker frame over the "Timer"
column to the right, to the column above the switch
symbol, using the appropriate selection key of the left
or right touch pad. Now tap twice on the centre SET
key of the right touch: The first tap will activate the
“Switch assignment”, the second tap will call up the
list of "expanded switches":

The stopwatch in the basic display now starts with
movement of the proportional rotary control toward
full throttle and stops if it is turned back again over
the switch-point.
Examples 2 and 3 of the preceding pages
If you control your motor with a switch, on the other
hand, you do not need the control switch described
above. It is completely sufficient if you assign the
same switch to the timer, so that it also begins to run
when you switch on the motor.
Tip:
If the motor run time for an E-model is limited
by the battery capacity, you can have the
stopwatch count down. Enter the maximum
permissible motor run time in the "Timer" column,
e. g. "5 min", and shortly before expiration of
permissible time, e. g. "30 s" before, have the
transmitter issue an acoustic warning signal:
