▋Trainer【TRAINER】aka:▋Buddy▋Box▋in▋the▋USA
▋▋Function▋Explanation
This function allows two (2) transmitters to be connected via a Trainer cable (available
separately) to allow dual control ight instruction. A skilled pilot can teach a beginner how to
y an aircraft using this trainer system. The XG14 can function as Master (Trainer) or Slave
(Trainee). Control can be changed between Master and Slave using the Master Transmitter’s
Trainer switches (Trainer momentary switch, or Trim Lever).
▋▋Setting▋Method
As a Master transmitter
When using the XG14 as a “MASTER”
① The Main Power must be turned on, the transmitter is transmitting Radio Waves, and is bound
to the aircraft.
② The Trainer cable is plugged in.
The Trim Lever or Trainer Switch (Momentary Toggle switch) are selected using “SW SEL” – by turning these ON/OFF
it is possible to switch control from the Master transmitter to the Slave. There are two modes available for the Master
transmitter.
¾
Master Side has following two modes.
፧
“NORMAL MODE”
The Master transmitter always has priority control.
Control data coming from Slave transmitter is only
sent to the aircraft by switching control from Master
to Slave. The Slave transmitter has to be set to “PPM”
mode. The Master transmitter has full control over the
model, however, the Slave transmitter does not need to
be exactly the same radio, or a high end transmitter. The
Slave transmitter should be able to output a “PPM” signal,
and have a trainer Jack as the minimum transmitter
function requirements.
፧
“PROGRAM TRAINER”
The Master transmitter can be programmed to choose
the control channels independently for use by the
Slave transmitter. Channel-1 (THRO /SPOI), Channel- 2
(AILE), Channel-3 ELEV) Channel-4 (RUDD) Select one or
more of them to be controlled by the Slave transmitter.
This allows the beginner pilot to learn a single control
independently. This makes it easier to learn, without
the worry of controlling all functions at once. The data
coming from Slave to Master is combined with data
from the Master transmitter’s Settings (Trim, Dual rates,
Mixing etc…) before being transmitterd to the model.
Therefore, The Master transmitter has full control.
However, the Slave transmitter does not need to be a full control radio. Precise adjustments and settings must
be done on the Master transmitter. The Slave transmitter must be selected as “SLAVE” This Trainer program is
available on most recent JR Computer transmitters.
As a Slave transmitter
When using the transmitter as a “SLAVE”
① The Main Power switch must be turned off (No
Radio Waves are transmitted).
② The Trainer cable must be plugged in.
There are two modes available for the Slave
transmitter.
፧
When the Master transmitter is set to Normal mode,
the Slave transmitter should also be set to “NORMAL”
mode. There are no specific setting requirements,
however, if the radio has a Trainer program, do not
set it as “SLAVE”.
፧
SLAVE MODE:
Use this mode when the Master transmitter is set to “Program Trainer”. When set as “SLAVE”, only the
Gimbals stick functions pass control outputs to the Master transmitter. Therefore, settings such as Dual
rates and Mixing are ignored completely.
▋▋Caution▋Note
Be sure to check for correct function and control prior to commencing ight training using two transmitters. Pay
particular attention to control direction, Dual rates, mixing, etc.
