Select menu now appears on the screen, which you can use

name line which you wish to alter, then select the appropriate

the 3-D hotkey and press the ‘EDIT’ button.
If you wish to modify an existing name, select the appropriate
arrow button: now you can move the cursor in the appropria-
te direction by pressing the ‘EDIT’ button. To erase the letter,

11.5 TRANSMITTER CONTROL SETTINGS
Hardware transmitter control reverse
This menu provides a means of reversing any of the transmit-
ter controls, including the primary sticks and switches (hard-
ware reverse). If you carry out a hardware reverse, the effect of
the corresponding transmitter control is reversed. This setting
does not affect the screen display (percentage value / prefix).
W
e recommend leaving these settings at NORM unless you
have very special requirements. The facility is really intended
only for very unusual cases where pilots have become accus-
tomed to operating particular functions “the wrong way
round”, because it suits their individual flying style.
Use the 3-D hot-key to mark the ‘H/W REVERSE’ option in the
System menu, and confirm your selection with EDIT.
Use the ‘3-D hot-key’ to make your choice within the menu,
and use it again to mark the ‘MODE’ field for the transmitter
control which you wish to reverse.
Turn the ‘3-D hot-key’ to reverse the mode. Key to the display:
• NORM:
The transmitter control operates in the default direction
• REV:
The transmitter control operates in the reverse direction
• STICK MODE
We have already seen that the throttle stick can be converted
mechanically to use a ratchet or brake, but the transmitter also
enables the user to re-assign the function of the primary
sticks. In addition to the default ‘Mode 2’ setting, the trans-
mitter software offers three additional stick modes. This makes
it a straightforward matter to set up the system to match your
personal preferences. Since the assignment of the control
functions to the corresponding receiver servo outputs remains
the same for all stick modes, all you have to do is decide
which stick mode you wish to use to control your models.
Pressing the Enter button and turning the hot-key allows you
to set any of the stick modes (1 … 4).
Mode 1: Throttle right, aileron right, rudder left, elevator left
Mode 2: Throttle left, aileron right, rudder left, elevator right
Mode 3: Throttle right, aileron left, rudder right, elevator left
Mode 4: Throttle let, aileron left, rudder right, elevator right
Switches (switch type assignment)
The external mixer switches of the FX-30 system are equipped
with plug-in connectors, and each is clamped in the case
using a central nut. This arrangement makes it possible to re-
position the switches to suit the user’s wishes.
