Spoiler
Used for glide path control or for "braking" the model.
Switch
Controls that switch functions on or off or toggle between functions; multiple
menus are available for assigning switches to functions. Standard functions
(D/R, Timer, etc.) are compiled in a list.
Thr.Limiter (only helicopters)
Restricts (limits) the maximum possible throttle value. This allows safer model
setups. For normal flying, the limiter is set to maximum.
After startup of the power system, the throttle limiter can be used to slowly
increase the speed of the main rotor.
Throttle curve (only helicopters)
The throttle curve has 7 points and determines how much throttle is assigned
to the individual positions of the collective pitch stick. The aim is a constant
speed, i.e. the higher the collective pitch, the more the throttle is advanced.
Throttle-Cut
While this switch is switched on, the throttle channel is maintained in the
position which you earlier selected during travel adjustment as point P1 for
the throttle servo. This enables you to "switch off" an I.C. engine, assuming
that the carburettor barrel is fully closed at this position.
Throttle trim (idle)
You can use this function to fine-tune the idle characteristics of an I.C. engine
to suit the operating conditions (temperature, humidity). Trimming is carried
out using the trim button adjacent to the stick which you have selected (via
"Mode") to control throttle and collective pitch.
Trainer mode
Safest method for beginners to get started in model sport; two transmitters
are inter-connected using a second M-Link radio link. An experienced
modeller has control over the model, and is able to transfer control functions
to the student by operating the trainer button ("TEACHER" button). Initially
these will be individual control functions, and later all the main control
functions are transferred when the "student" has gained sufficient skill. If
individual control functions are transferred, the teacher retains control over
the remaining control functions. When the TEACHER button is released, the
teacher resumes full control of the model—typically if a dangerous situation
