4.7 CHANGING THROTTLE FUNCTION
The Tx is delivered as Mode 2 as standard, left stick fitted with
ratchet throttle and right stick with self-centring. Either stick
may be chosen for use as a positionable throttle control.
Remove the control cover plate by loosening the marked screw
and transfer to the other stick unit, refit the screws.
There are four different Stick Modes (Mode 1-4):
4.6 ACTIVATION OF THE STICK RATCHET FUNCTION
(STICK MODE)
Aircraft models will usually have a ratchet fitted to the throttle
stick to hold it in any set position. To do this, disconnect the
self-centring of the throttle stick by tightening the cover plate
screw on the relevant stick. This will disconnect the stick self-
centring. Additionally, the throttle ratchet is already fitted to
this plate, which gives an immediate ratchet function. To make
the ratchet “softer”, carefully bend the ratchet plate upwards.
For helicopter pilots, an additional friction plate is included to
replace the ratchet. This is screwed to the inner face of the
joystick plate.
In the System menu, sub-menu “H/W Setting”, select STICK
MODE. If mechanically changing the stick mode to Mode 1, 3
or 4 i.e. changing from the, as delivered, Mode 2 with throttle
on left hand stick, then the software must be also updated ac-
cordingly see also STICK MODE on page 23.
Note:
When changing to a new model memory, the last stored „Stick
Mode“ setting is automatically used.
4.5 DIGITAL TRIM LEVERS
The 4 digital trim controls for the sticks (T1…. T4) are rotary
trims located near the sticks. You can freely assign these for
use as trims, as other control inputs or as inputs for mixer func-
tions.
Each time, the trim value to the default Step change. Reached
the neutral position of the trim-(Center) or the neutral run over,
so an acoustic signal.
The current trim position is a graphic in the Start display dis-
played.
